Clematis - Nelly Moser

Clematis Nelly Moser, Clematis 'Nelly Moser', is an outstanding vigorous cultivar that is perfect for a shady location! When planted in full sun, the flower color fades quickly. The light mauve-pink petals have deep rose-pink central bars that give the large 8" flowers a pinwheel look. Very floriferous flowering in late spring to early summer and again in early autumn. 'Nelly Moser' is one of the most popular Clematis cultivars and will surely brighten any dark, shady area! Awarded Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Clematis 'Nelly Moser' needs a supporting structure to grow properly. Clematis is easy to grow in a rich, porous, alkaline soil with plenty of room for the roots to spread. Best performance is in the shade. Very reliable performers once established; they take a season or two. Prune lightly above the new leaf buds in early spring and remove any dead or weak stems.
