Clematis Olgae

Nodding blue flowers on strong arching stems showcase this classic flower form that includes twisting sepals and dark stems. Multiple flowers on each stem add to the floral display. This small, non-vining plant is perfect for the front of border gardens, or to plant at the base of a tall, vining clematis in a similar or contrasting color. When the flowers wane, cut hard to the ground and the plant will completely regrow and flower within 6 weeks. They'll do well in containers for a season, but for long-term performance, plant Integrifolia Olgae in the earth. It will self-seed to grow itself with slight variations in color, filling smaller areas of the garden. Clematis integrifolia 'Olgae'

In our EZ Pruning Guide, this variety is in the GREEN pruning category. These Clematis bloom on new vines that emerge from the ground each year or stems from near the bottom of older vines. Prune hard in the spring and as often as you like to encourage reblooming and keep the plant as tidy as you like.
