Clematis 'Hagley Hybrid'

---

A strong performing beauty that prefers life on the partly shaded side, 'Hagley Hybrid' Clematis features large and abundant flowers up to 6 inches across in shades of shell pink touched with lavender to almost white surrounding contrasting deep burgundy anthers. Absolutely breathtaking in bloom, especially when grown in a partially shaded environment. The flowers on this one don't really like the hot afternoon sun, which is fine with us as they really glow in a shady garden. The flowers start coming very late spring to early summer and are continuous through early fall. At 8 to 10 feet tall, Hagley Hybrid is ideal for arches, fences, rails, trellises, obelisks and posts and is also well-suited for containers or rambling as a groundcover through shrubs.

Climbing 8 to 10 feet tall and spreading 3 to 6 feet or more in width, the Hagley Hybrid Clematis is ideal for growing on fences and trellises, mailbox pots, obelisks, posts and other structures. It is also excellent for pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks, porches and around other outdoor living spaces where the amazing flowers can be viewed from close up. A fine addition to Clematis gardens, pink theme gardens and butterfly and hummingbird gardens.

Suggested Spacing:  3 to 4 feet apart to cover fences, trellises, and walls

Hagley Hybrid Clematis is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and part shade. Morning and evening sun are fine but the flowers don't like the direct afternoon sun. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather. See pruning instructions just below.
