Notes
'Reiman' clematis (Clematis 'Reiman') is a vine for containers, cottage gardens, and specimen use, and it also works as a privacy screen. 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. Dark purple blooms with light purple stripes attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Aili Kivistik bred it.
Pairs well with Limelight hydrangea, Western sword fern, and Nodding onion.
