A classy 1877 introduction by the former British nursery Cripps & Sons, ‘Gipsy Queen’ puts on a regal air with plush dark purple flowers borne on strong stems. The gorgeous abundant blooms are composed of burgundy-colored anthers plus 4 to 6 broad blunt-tipped tepals, which are narrow at the base, lending an open aspect amongst deciduous pinnate leaves. This peppy medium-sized AGM winner reigns supreme, either positioned near silver or gold-leafed shrubs or scrambling upon an arbor or column.

Blooms mid-June–September

Size: 10' 0" – 12' 0" high x 0" & spreading wide.
