Description

Clematis Armandii

Clematis Armandii will enhance your garden in spring with an abundance of fragrant creamy-white nodding flowers over your wall, trellis, hedges or even the ground. One of the most popular Clematis of all, this strong climber is easy to grow and will be happy in any aspect although shelter will encourage more blossoms.

It doesn't need pruning, although some trimming will encourage strong new growth. If you need a smaller clematis, or one for more exposed sites, take a look at other varieties in our Clematis collection.

Great for your garden:

Clematis Armandii will be happiest in alkaline or neutral soil Flowers most profusely in sheltered spots. It does very well trained horizontally, along eaves for example, and is very vigorous, growing up through large trees. It can also look great over a post or trellis, wall or arch. Catch the fragrance as you pass by.

When young, it grows thick, bronze foliage. It doesn't need pruning but you can cut it back low to encourage new flowers at lower levels or just to keep it in shape

Trivia:

Introduced from China by Ernest Wilson in 1900 and named for Pere Armand David, a French missionary. Pere David was the first Westerner to see a panda. He also introduced numerous animal and plant species to Europe, including new gentians, and gerbils.

Wilson himself was also a formidable collector, bringing around 2000 species back to the UK. Clematis Armandii was a discovery of his first expedition to China.

Planting and Care Instructions

How to grow Clematis Armandii:

Clematis Armandii can be grown easily following the Clematis planting notes.

  • Pruning is not essential, but a trim of the dead and damaged stems will keep the plant healthy and encourage vigorous growth.
  • A classic planting combination is with roses, which bloom around the same time and offer support to the climbing vine. Why not experiment with colour mixes for your own take on this tradition.
  • If in full sun, do ensure the base and roots are shaded and kept cool with other plants or pebbles.
