Notes

'Sally' clematis (Clematis 'Sally') is a vine for 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. The pink blooms have deeper pink central bars, and the color does not fade in full sun. It blooms several times a season. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Smooth hydrangea, Paris coral bells, and Standing Ovation little bluestem.
