NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
Blue Boy Clematis is a cold-hardy, fast growing, woody climbing vine. Hundreds of stunning steel-blue bell shaped flowers adorn the vine throughout the summer that droop and appear to hang in the air. The fibrous stems spread and create a fan-like symmetry shape.
This species will do best with support from a trellis, fence, or even other shrubs or tree stumps.
The Blue Boy Clematis was developed in Manitoba, Canada in 1947 by famous breeder Frank L. Skinner by crossing C. integrifolia x C. viticella, but it didn’t gain popularity until the 1990’s.
Josee Reblooming Lilac is the perfect lilac for an urban yard. Unlike most lilacs, this shrub is capable of producing fragrant blooms multiple times per year. Plus, Josee Reblooming Lilac is significantly smaller than all the other lilacs we carry so you don't have to worry about it taking over your yard.
You can plant it as a hedge or on its own–it's beautiful either way. For more hedge row ideas, check out Miss Kim Korean Lilac. The Josee is comparable to the Bloomerang.
