Planting & Care

Where to Plant

  • Sunlight: This vine performs best with at least six hours of direct sun to produce the most vibrant blue flowers. It is important to keep the base of the plant shaded by low growing perennials or mulch to keep the roots cool while the top grows in the light.
  • Soil: Use fertile, well drained soil that is rich in organic matter. If you have heavy clay that drains slowly, mix in compost to improve the structure and prevent the roots from sitting in stagnant water.

Watering Requirements

Newly planted Sacha Clematis needs deep watering two or three times a week to help the roots get settled. For mature plants, keep the soil consistently moist like a wrung out sponge during the hot summer months. Inconsistent watering often leads to smaller blooms and yellowing leaves as the plant struggles with heat stress.

Pruning Tips

This variety is a Group 3 clematis, which means it produces all of its flowers on new wood grown in the current year. In late winter or early spring, give the vine a hard haircut by cutting all stems back to about 12 inches above the ground. This clears out the old growth and encourages the plant to send up a fresh, dense pillar of deep blue flowers.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced, slow release fertilizer in early spring as soon as you see new green shoots emerge from the soil. Avoid using high nitrogen fertilizers after mid summer. Extra nitrogen late in the season forces the plant to focus on foliage growth instead of flower production, which can cut your blooming season short.

Bring a vertical splash of electric color to your outdoor living space with the award-winning Sacha™ Clematis (Clematis 'Evipo060'). Part of the world-renowned Boulevard® Collection by Raymond Evison, Sacha was bred specifically to solve the problem of traditional clematis vines outgrowing their welcome. If you have a small balcony, a cozy patio, or a garden border that needs a punch of color without the footprint of a massive climber, this is your plant.

Prolific Deep Blue Blooms

The standout feature of the Sacha Clematis is the sheer abundance of its flowers. Starting in early summer, the vine is smothered in medium-sized, vibrant deep blue to violet-blue blossoms. These aren't just one-and-done bloomers; Sacha is a "multi-flowering" marvel, providing a continuous display that lasts through the heat of mid-summer and well into the crisp days of early autumn. The petals have a subtle, velvety texture that catches the light, creating a shimmering effect against the clean green foliage.

Designed for Small Spaces

While many Clematis varieties can grow 10 to 20 feet long, Sacha remains a polite and manageable 4 to 5 feet tall. This compact habit makes it the perfect candidate for a decorative obelisk in a large ceramic pot or a trellis against a porch pillar. It creates a dense "pillar of color" rather than a sprawling mess, allowing you to enjoy the elegance of a flowering vine even in a limited landscape.

Seasonal Versatility

Through the spring, watch the fresh green shoots emerge with vigor. By June, the first wave of deep blue transforms your garden into a pollinator paradise, attracting bees and butterflies. As the seasons shift to fall, the plant continues to produce new buds, ensuring your garden remains lively until the first frosts. Because it is so hardy and easy to prune, Sacha Clematis is an excellent choice for both beginner gardeners and seasoned collectors looking for a reliable, "workhorse" perennial vine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prune my Sacha Clematis?

  • Sacha is a Group 3 clematis. In late winter or early spring, cut all the old stems back to about 6–12 inches from the ground. This "hard prune" encourages fresh, strong growth that will carry this year's flowers.

Can Sacha Clematis be grown in a pot?

  • Yes! It was specifically bred for the Boulevard® Collection, which focuses on compact habits ideal for patio containers and small gardens. Ensure your pot has a drainage hole and a small trellis for the vine to climb.

Does this plant need full sun?

  • Sacha Clematis performs best in full sun to partial shade. Like most clematis, it prefers its "head in the sun and feet in the shade," so consider planting low-growing perennials or applying mulch around the base to keep the roots cool.

What is the flower color of Sacha?

  • Sacha produces bright, deep blue flowers with a hint of purple-violet. The color is very stable and holds up well throughout the long blooming season.

Is this variety deer resistant?

  • Clematis are generally considered deer resistant, as the foliage is not a preferred food source for them.
