Clematis ‘Jan Fopma’ at Digging Dog Nursery

Clematis

Simple and beautiful, Clematis includes over 300 named cultivars and even more wild species than the rose. Our selections offer stylish blossoms, attractive carefree foliage, and ornamental seed heads, in exchange for a minimum of attention. Use them to cover just about every stump and dead tree, as well as on trellises, arbors, pergolas, walls and tall shrubs. They prefer to be planted slightly deep in cool well-drained soil with mulch or a ground cover to shade their feet; provide a support and let them climb. Each vine is 18 inches to 2 feet tall. Medium Band.

Named as a tribute to acclaimed Dutch Clematis doyenne Jan Fopma, this wondrous, new scrambler exhibits the best attributes of both its parents, Clematis integrifolia and Clematis fusca, thanks to fellow Dutch plant breeder, Wim Snoeijer. Slender, semiherbaceous stems and natty, pointed, deciduous green leaves give way to a long-lasting chocolate-scented flood of open, thick-walled, rosy purple bells with dainty flared tips, darker purple interiors and light pink margins. A fanciful spectacle for bees, butterflies and all who behold it, small-statured ‘Jan Fopma’ parades delicate, silken seed heads for late season appeal, tumbles over container rims, laces through shrubs or clambers upon obelisks.

Blooms July–September

Size: 5' 0" high x 0" & spreading wide.
