Clematis 'Olympia'

 

A stunningly compact bloomer with vigorous, deep green foliage and a profusion of vibrant purple flowers that bloom from both the axils and the stems, resulting in an overwhelming flower power. Large flowers can reach 4-5" across with vibrant purple petals lightly streaked with a bar of magenta running from the center to its pointed tip. Fluffy white anthers peek from the center, creating an eye catching contrast. Compact foliage is low maintenance and easy to grow, fabulous for containers, patios, or even hanging baskets!
Bloom Time: Early summer, repeating through fall
Exposure: Afternoon shade.
Size: 3-5' Tall Water: Regular

Pruning: In late January/early February, cut to 6-8” from ground level to a pair of buds. Then cut by half after the first flush of blooms is finished. Feed after each pruning session with well-balanced fertilizer.
