A Royal Beauty with Deep Pink Tulip Blooms
The Clematis 'Princess of Wales' is a sophisticated and highly prized variety from the texensis group, named in honour of royalty. Throughout the summer months, it produces an abundance of elegant, upright tulip-shaped flowers. The blooms are a rich, luminous deep pink, often with reddish tones on the outside and a paler pink inside, creating a stunning two-tone effect.
Winner of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, this variety is celebrated for its versatility and garden performance. Unlike traditional climbing clematis that cling tightly, this plant loves to scramble happily over the soil, drape over low walls, or weave its way through shrubs. It is also one of the few clematis varieties that makes a truly excellent cut flower, allowing you to bring its royal charm inside the house.

Gardeners looking for unique flower shapes
At The Rose Press Garden, we love 'Princess of Wales' for its elegance. The tulip shape is so refined, and because it scrambles rather than climbs aggressively, it creates a lovely, natural look when allowed to wander through the flower border.
