A luxuriously glossy, fragrant evergreen climber that bursts into creamy white flowers in spring.
Clematis armandii is a fast-growing evergreen vine known for its leathery, glossy dark green foliage which stays attractive year-round. In early spring it produces clusters of very fragrant, creamy-white star-shaped flowers on old wood, often followed by plume-topped seeds that add texture into summer. Excellent when trained over trellises, walls or archways in a sheltered spot, this clematis brings both foliage and floral interest.
