These medium flowers appear in shades of pink and lilac with a fluffy shape that resembles a lacy parasol. Piilu is known as one of the most heavily blooming Clematis, with a wealth of blooms covering the vine from bottom to top. Plant it in a container for a full and abundant display. In early summer, it produces beautiful double blooms with extra sepals on old wood, and single blooms again later in the season on new wood. In cooler climates, this compact vine will flower all season long. Clematis 'Piilu'
In our EZ Pruning Guide, this variety is in the YELLOW pruning category. It blooms best on old vine. Use caution when pruning to retain healthy stems from last season for best flowering.
