Clematis tangutica

Clematis tangutica is a vigorous, late-flowering climber that brings months of interest to the garden. From mid-summer to late autumn, it produces cheerful, lantern-shaped yellow flowers with thick, petal-like sepals, followed by striking, silky seedheads that last into winter.

Perfect for training over a sunny wall, pergola, or arch, this hardy variety adds structure and seasonal charm. In smaller gardens, it can be pruned back hard in February to maintain size and encourage fresh growth. Low-maintenance and highly decorative, Clematis tangutica is an excellent choice for adding long-lasting colour and texture to your garden.

July-October flowering. Grows best in full sun and semi-shade, in most well-drained soils. Height & spread: 4.3m x 3m (14′ x 10′).
