Notes

'Sarah Elizabeth' clematis (Clematis 'Sarah Elizabeth') 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. Glowing pink flowers open along the stems from bottom to top and rebloom from late spring to late autumn. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Mogens Nyegaard Olesen bred it.

Pairs well with Smooth hydrangea, Standing Ovation little bluestem, and Cinnamon fern.
