I love the color

I was looking for a pretty 5 petal pink cleamatis to join my blue ones.

Mine did not flower last year very young and small

Can this be a container plant?

I have had two in containers for the past two years. they get three to four-foot runners.

Happy Clematis
I wanted to experiment with a clematis as a companion plant in my zone 9b rose garden and my research suggested I try Comtesse de Bouchard. The plant I received was on the small size, but strongly rooted. It is growing slowly, but strongly and has already bloomed. The temperatures in The Villages this summer have been 95 degrees plus for months now and my clematis is very happy.

She's a Beaut!!
Replanted with no problem. I was even surprised with a few flower blooms this year!! I anticipated she'd hold out on me for a year or two. Color is exactly what the picture looked like.

Comtesse de Bouchard clematis
I got this tiny clematis this past spring. It was only about 6” tall. It had a huge root ball. Summers coming to an end and it’s now 4’ tall and it’s about to flower for the THIRD time. Love it! Thanks Stark Bros.

Color must vary?
The plant I have is now second year planted. Started blooming, flowers not as pictures. Pale pink, smaller,more open petal, but is prolific as far as blooming. Disappointed.
