Blue Boy Clematis

Blue Moon Wisteria is a striking, flowering vine, and the hardiest of the wisterias. Up to three times in one growing season you can expect showy, fragrant, lavender-blue flowers.

Make sure you plan your site as this vine requires a structure to support its mature weight. Try planting close to a post, trellis, or fence.

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.
