Notes
'QE' clematis (Clematis 'QE') is a vine for containers, cottage gardens, specimen plantings, and privacy screens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn, and it draws butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds. The vine is evergreen, so it can cover a screen all year.
Pairs well with Phantom panicle hydrangea, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Nodding onion.
