ClimbersClematis montana
Mountain Clematis
Mountain clematis is a fast-growing climber that becomes smothered in white or pink flowers during May and June. The plant can cover large surfaces in a short time, making it ideal for growing over pergolas, fences, and unsightly walls. The lightly fragrant blooms appear on the previous year's wood.

Italian Clematis
The Italian clematis is a vigorous, healthy climber producing an abundance of medium-sized, bell-shaped purple to blue flowers from July to September. Unlike many other clematis species, it is highly resistant to the dreaded clematis wilt. Ideal for pergolas, fences, and trees.
