Notes

'Stand By Me Pink' clematis (Clematis 'Stand By Me Pink') is a perennial for containers, cottage gardens, and pollinator gardens. 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. The bell-shaped pink flowers open in early summer and bloom again in late summer, and creamy white, thread-like seed heads follow. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Hans A. Hansen bred it.

Pairs well with Smooth hydrangea, Nodding onion, and Royal fern.
