Trouble-free Clematis : Viticellas Hardback
by John Howells
Hardback
Description
The viticella clematis is an undiscovered garden treasure - abundant, vigorous and varied in appearance, easy to grow and maintain.
They are the perfect starting point for growers new to the clematis, and an inspiring presence in any garden. 'A garden plant second to none', in the author's words.
The standard Large Flowered varieties of clematis, being easier to display in orderly garden centres, completely dominate in the commercial market.
Viticellas, by comparison, are easier to grow, vigorous, hardy and completely resistant to the threat of Clematis Wilt (Stem Rot) which is a consistent obstacle to the growth of healthy Large Flowered clematis plants.
This book is the only one on this subject, and offers a valuable practical guide to viticellas, leading the reader through the varieties of small, medium and large blooms, and explaining the route to successful growth.
The striking impact of the viticella combined with the ease of cultivation offers exciting prospects for gardeners.
