Garden Plant: Jolly Good Clematis
Jolly Good Clematis
Product Description: Jolly Good Clematis
Gorgeous, Long-Blooming Clematis
Jolly Good Clematis puts on a “jolly good” show, and keeps the fun coming all summer long! The display begins in spring as green leaves and vigorous growth combine to create a vibrant, climbing vine. By late spring/early summer, 3-inch blooms appear with their lavender petals highlighted with deeper streaks of purple, and accented with adorable white stamens.
Jolly Good is a prolific bloomer and keeps up the show throughout the entire summer. Wildlife love it, with butterflies, bees and hummingbirds all too happy to pay it multiple visits throughout the season (adding to its decorative allure in your yard).
Your Jolly Good Clematis is a mid-sized, deciduous shrub and will grow up to 7 feet in length/height. It’s a vigorous grower, with a compact nature and easy-to-care-for manner. It blooms on new wood, so trimming it back to two feet in early spring will help maintain its shape, and it trains quite easily to a trellis or fence.
Although pollinators love it, deer and bunnies will pass it by (so no need to worry about protecting it from your yard’s critters). You can even place a few Jolly Good in containers for your front porch where you can easily cut a few of the lovely blooms as an accent for your kitchen table. Overall, it’s a versatile and high-performing clematis variety.
A Proven Winners Shrub, Jolly Good Clematis is certainly proven to be a highly valuable clematis variety for gardeners… and it’s sure to provide a “jolly good” time for you and your family when you plant one in your yard this year!
