Clematis recta 'Purpurea'
- Loved by Pollinators
- Perfect for Pots
- Scented
With purple-copper tinged foliage and bright white flowers, this plant is not only pretty but adds different colours and shades to borders. The hawthorn-like scent is stronger if grown in sun, and is attractive to both bees and butterflies. A real winner
