Description
Transform your garden into a showcase of elegance with Clematis 'Nelly Moser', a classic climber known for its striking blooms. These climbing leather flowers measures up to 20cm across, featuring rosy-lilac sepals adorned with a bold carmine stripe down the centre. Complemented by vivid stamens, Clematis 'Nelly Moser' creates a dazzling display that’s impossible to ignore.
Renowned for its resilience and beauty, Clematis 'Nelly Moser' flowers twice a year—first in late spring to early summer, then again in late summer.

Whether draped over a trellis, pergola, or wall, its climbing nature adds vertical interest and a splash of colour to any outdoor space.
Clematis 'Nelly Moser' is equally happy in sun or partial shade, and its delicate colouring makes it ideal for brightening shadier corners of the garden where other plants might struggle. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, it’s perfect for both seasoned gardeners and beginners looking to make a statement.

Useful information
-
Soak the Clematis 'Nelly Moser' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Climbing leather flower" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
