Clematis SAPHYRA® Nancy Jour de la Terre 'CLEMINOV15'

Description

SAPHYRA® Nancy Jour de la Terre is a new Clematis variety, ideal for terraces, balconies and small urban gardens. With its compact habit, not exceeding 1.5 to 2 m, it can be grown as a climbing plant or as a ground cover. Extremely flowering, it offers an airy and colourfull display that is repeated throughout the summer. Its abundant, fuchsia-pink, star-shaped 10-12 cm flowers, shine bright against the foliage. Resistant to pollution, cold, rain, drought and diseases, it is an easy-to-grow, low maintenance plant. The SAPHYRA® Nancy Clematis behaves like a perennial and regrows from base every year. Pruning is not obligatory.

A clematis named after the city of Nancy:

The city of Nancy is the birthplace of Victor Lemoine, regarded worldwide as the greatest ornamental plant breeder and introducer of all times. The naming of this clematis variety is a fitting tribute to the role played by the city of Nancy in the development of horticulture.
