Clematis armandii 'Apple Blossom'

Clematis armandii 'Apple Blossom' is a very popular variety because of its sweet almond fragrance, which fills the air from late winter to early spring-long before most plants dare to bloom! The leathery, dark green foliage on the long stems has a glossy sheen. The bronze growth contrasts nicely with the early blooms. This vigorous evergreen climber thrives in a sheltered location away from strong winds. It requires little maintenance and quickly covers unsightly fences, walls, or outbuildings if given enough space to grow. Height: 5m (15?). Spread: 3m (10?). Pruning group: 1
