Description
Clematis Nelly Moser is an accepted early large-flowered cultivar producing large, single, flat flowers up to 20 cm across. Eight rosy-lilac sepals carry distinctive carmine stripes around reddish stamens. It flowers from late spring into early summer and again in early autumn; partial shade helps prevent colour fade.
