Ethereal Beauty: The Serene Lavender-Blue Clematis 'Mrs Cholmondeley'

Introduce a sense of tranquil elegance to your garden with the magnificent Clematis 'Mrs Cholmondeley'. This award-winning variety is celebrated for its exceptionally large, star-shaped flowers that boast a delicate shade of lavender-blue. With blooms that can reach an impressive 20cm in diameter, it creates a breathtaking tapestry of colour, featuring light brown anthers that provide a soft, sophisticated contrast to the cool-toned petals.

Known for its remarkably long flowering season, 'Mrs Cholmondeley' begins its display in late spring and continues to produce its ethereal blossoms well into late summer. Its vigorous climbing habit makes it a dream for covering large structures, yet it remains graceful enough to weave through garden obelisks or climb through existing shrubs. The silky texture of the petals and the way they catch the morning light makes this climber a truly sensory experience for any garden enthusiast.

Key features:

• Giant Blooms: One of the largest flowering Clematis varieties, producing blooms up to 20cm across.

• Extended Season: Offers a prolific display from May through to August or September.

• Versatile Growth: Easily scales trellises, fences, and pergolas with its vigorous climbing nature.

• Award-Winning: A recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and performance.

• Pollinator Haven: The wide, open flowers are highly attractive to bees and other beneficial insects.

Perfect for:

• Cottage Gardens: Ideal for creating a romantic, soft-focused vertical backdrop.

• Wildlife Gardens: Attracting essential pollinators with its accessible and abundant pollen.

• Arches and Pergolas: Perfect for creating a floral ceiling or a scented walkway.

• Large Containers: Can be grown in large pots to add height to patios and terraces.

At The Rose Press Garden, we love...
We are completely enchanted by the sheer scale of 'Mrs Cholmondeley'. The lavender-blue hue is so cooling and peaceful, especially during the height of summer. We love how it seems to never stop flowering—just when you think the show is over, it surprises you with another flush of those massive, dreamy blooms. It truly is a staple for any vertical garden.
