Description
Clematis 'Ville de Lyon'
This sumptuous pink-red clematis has distinctive rounded flowers with slightly overlapping sepals, creating a wonderful contrast with most other clematis varieties. The blooms are not the biggest, starting off around 10-15cm wide and shrinking as the season goes on, but they are profuse and look superb jumbled up with the fresh green foliage.
