Notes

'Snow Queen' clematis (Clematis 'Snow Queen') is a vine for privacy screens, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. 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 usually look elsewhere for a meal. White and mauve blooms with red anthers open in spring, summer, and autumn, and they draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. The vine is evergreen, and W.S. Callick bred it.

Pairs well with Limelight hydrangea, Little bluestem, and Green Spice coral bells.
