The Graceful Clematis

Gardeners love clematis for its long flowering period and delicate, vine-like beauty. A garden favorite in many cultures since the mid-1800s, clematis is from the Greek word for vine and is a member of the buttercup family. True to the origin of its name, clematis is a climbing plant with a twining leaf stalk. Showy, bell-shaped flowers in diverse colors and sizes provide garden interest at various heights.


Navlet's is proud to introduce a unique series of patented clematis from Rosemoor, the world's preeminent clematis breeder. Featured here is the Raymond Evison Signature Series, a tribute to the 200-year anniversary of the Royal Horticulture Society (RHS). Bred to retain the best traits of clematis, the Raymond Evison Series has an extensive flowering period, producing abundant blooms from spring through fall. Placement near roses and other flowering vines will enhance the beauty of this graceful clematis.

Look for these clematis varieties at your nearest Navlet’s:

Wisely - This free-flowering variety will bring floral abundance to your garden from June through September. Its beautiful, crinkle-edged purple blooms grow to five inches in diameter.

Harlow Carr - A fabulous companion plant with masses of flowers, the Harlow Carr will accent your garden with generous purple blooms from June through October.

Rosemoor - The floral beauty begins early with this prolific bloomer. Enjoy its distinctive rose-colored blossoms from May through September.

When searching for a home for your clematis, remember that it prefers a sunny, well-drained site. Avoid disturbing the root ball, and be sure to keep the area moist during the first growing season. Dr. Earth Starter Fertilizer is beneficial. If you plan to use a container, add organic NSCP or Navlet’s Potting Soil. For details about the long-term care of your clematis, speak to an expert at your nearest Navlet’s.
