Clematis 'Niobe'

Genus: Clematis.

Species: Clematis.

Spring and fall flowering clematis, it flowered both times even in my short season. I am overwintering for the first time this year 08-09 and am excited to see what I get next year. It doubled its size last season and the first fall blooms froze on the stem. It flowered more pink for me but that season was very chilly. I have it climbing the porch rail in a southeast position potted in ground and moss piled atop the soil surface.
