Compact and extremely attractive, Clematis integrifolia 'Juuli' is a deciduous clematis which gets covered with a profusion of large, semi-nodding, star-shaped flowers, up to 3-5 in. (8-12 cm), with 4-6 long sepals in shades of rosy-purple first then maturing to mauve-blue, which contrast with the creamy filaments and sunny yellow anthers.

  • Blooming from mid to late summer, this vigorous and extremely floriferous Clematis vine was raised by Uno Kivistik in Estonia.
  • It thrives in moist, well-drained soils, in full sun or part shade. Ideally, Clematis prefer having their 'heads in the sun and their feet in the shade'. Keep the roots cool and shaded by other plants or add a layer of pebbles or flat stones at the base. Afternoon shade is appreciated in hot summer areas.
  • Hardy, it is incredibly free-flowering and can quickly grow up to 4-5 ft. long (120-150 cm).
  • Excellent choice for trellis and can be trained to climb a wall, fence or arbor. Combines beautifully with other climbers such as Roses. It will pair magnificently with English Roses such as 'A Shropshire Lad' or 'Strawberry Hill' or the warm-tinted 'Crown Princess Margareta'.
  • This Clematis belongs to the third group of Clematis – a group including Clematis which flower in late summer on growth made in that season. They should be pruned in late winter or early spring and require 'hard pruning': simply cut back the stems to a pair of strong buds about 1ft. (30 cm) above ground level before growth begins in early spring.
  • Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses.
