A Cloud of Scented Star-Like Blooms
The Clematis triternata 'Rubromarginata' is a highly coveted variety for any sensory garden, beloved for its intoxicating fragrance and profusion of blooms. Throughout the summer, this vigorous climber transforms into a cascading cloud of small, star-shaped flowers. The petals are white at the base but heavily tipped and edged with a velvety reddish-purple, giving the plant a stunning hazy-purple appearance from a distance.
What truly sets this variety apart is its scent. On warm summer days, the flowers release a strong, sweet perfume often likened to marzipan, almonds, or vanilla, which drifts through the air. It is a robust and energetic grower, capable of covering large areas quickly. Whether trained over a pergola, an archway, or left to scramble through trees, it provides a spectacular visual and olfactory display.
