Notes
'Rebecca' clematis (Clematis 'Rebecca') is a vine for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and specimen use. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It bears red flowers with white anthers, and bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit them. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it in 2007.
Pairs well with Peony, Caradonna sage, Iris, and Limelight hydrangea.
