She bloomed finally. Not very big compared to some Clematis and I really figured something named Snow Queen would be white but she is really pretty none the less. Clematis 'Snow Queen' ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden )
Sort of a light mauve(pinky purple)tint, with deep red almost maroon anthers. I just went our to measure her, she is just under 3 inches (7.5 cm) across. I really hope more will show up, this poor plant has been thru so much in the three years I have had her.
Very pretty Toni, and the name makes sense to me. When we have a lot of snow it looks blue in certain lights. I guess you wouldn't know about that though, living in Texas
I like this queen! I like delicate pastels in clematises. This Snow Queen of yours is a very pretty thing. Do you know how tall they can grow?
From the information on the tag it came with, it should get between 6-10 feet tall and 3-6 feet wide. The blooms in spring are supposed to be 6-7 inches across. I hope this one is small only because it is a late season blossom, really large ones next spring would be great.
Toni she is a wonder Queen.Her color is awesome.I could sure make room in my garden for her.You are so lucky to have her growing here in all the heat.Mine that I have bought goes caput.
