Clematis - Sweet Autumn
Clematis - Sweet Autumn Clematis - Sweet Autumn, Clematis maximowicziana, is a deciduous vine with a rampant growth habit and reaches 10' to 20' high. Its fragrant white flowers grow up to 0.5 inches across and continues to bloom late summer through fall. The white, citrus-scented flowers fade into feathery seed heads, and last until winter. Sweet Autumn prefers loamy, somewhat moist, well-drained soil. Provide a location where its head is in the sun and toes in the shade. Mulch around bottom to keep ground temperatures cool and moist. Give direct sun to encourage their large, showy blooms, but it will tolerate some shade. Sweet Autumn attaches to supports with twining leafstalks, and it will climb up trellises, walls, poles, trees and over shrubs. * Rampant growth habit * Fragrant * Tolerates some shade
