Clematis viticella 'Alba Luxurians'


Clematis viticella 'Alba Luxurians'
In recent years a number of clematis have been planted in the gardens, Clematis 'Etoile Violette', 'Black Prince' 'Madame Julia Correvon', 'Romantika', 'Durandii', 'Rooguchi' and 'Alba Luxurians' to name a few. All of them are covered in flowers at the moment but one in particular has rather unusual, misshapen flowers and these belong Clematis viticella 'Alba Luxurians'. On closer inspection no two flowers seem to be the same, all have four white petals with green tips but in varying patterns of white and green, add to this contorted flower shapes, they make a very eye catching display.
