Guernsey Flute™ Clematis: A Symphony of Elegance
Transform your garden with the stunning beauty of Guernsey Flute™ Clematis (Clematis 'EviGsy153'). This captivating flowering climbing vine features unique 6-inch blooms with soft, creamy white petals and a delightful hint of pale green at their base, giving it an ethereal charm.
This exceptional clematis has an unusual but endearing trait of holding, just open flower buds, for an extended period, almost like a champagne flute, hence the use of 'Flute' in its name. When flowers mature they open fully flat, with pointed sepals and of generous proportions. Possibly the most robust flower of any white form of large-flowered hybrid Clematis.
The plant is a repeat bloomer, producing its spectacular flowers abundantly in late spring and early summer, followed by a smaller, yet equally delightful, flush in late summer.
