$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Clematis patens ‘Souvenir du Capitaine Thuilleaux’ produces large, luminous blossoms in soft silvery white, each tepal accented by a distinct bright pink central bar. The broad, slightly overlapping tepals create an open, elegant flower form that highlights the contrasting center of reddish-purple anthers. Mid-green foliage provides a clean backdrop for the refined floral coloring.

Blooming begins in late spring with repeat flowering into summer. This cultivar originated in France in the early twentieth century and remains valued for trellises, arches, and garden obelisks, where its pale tones brighten vertical spaces and pair well with shrubs and roses.
