Clematis Niobe
Description
Clematis Niobe an outstanding perennial flowering vine with large wine red blooms that emerge late spring and last through summer. This vine is a quick grower that makes an excellent ground cover or climber. Very showy on arbors and fences. Plant another small perennial at the base of this plant in order to shade the roots and keep the plant cool.This clematis will bloom both on this seasons growth, as well as last seasons growth. Meaning minimal pruning is required. If anything just remove the spent blossoms to encourage more. If you cut back this vine in fall you may sacrifice the early flush of blooms.
