Perennial clematis with violet-blue, open flowers, borne from June to September. The sepals are narrow, twisted and have a deep violet stripe along the center. Crimson-purple anthers on violet-white filaments. The stems grow up to 1,5-2 m but are non-clinging, which means they need tying up or can lean against the support (as in case of a climbing rose). If grown without support, it will creep at ground level. Suitable for planting next to low garden supports. Ideal for growing through perennials and low shrubs, as ground cover or a terrace plant.
