Plant Features
Niobe Clematis Plants produce beautiful, dark velvet-red, 5-8 inch, single flowers that bloom in summer. Flowers are produced on new growth so plants should be pruned back hard in early spring. Clematis require moist soils to grow well. In northern gardens the do best in full sun but prefer lightly shaded areas in southern gardens. Deer seldom bother clematis.
