Sweet Summer Love's small flowers start out rich, raspberry red and mature to purple—sometimes appearing as though two Clematis flowers have merged together! It has a long bloom period, so there's plenty of time to enjoy the show. When it blooms in midsummer, you'll love the hot weather for the way it brings out each flower's vanilla fragrance. The large vine is excellent for trellises or arches. Clematis viticella 'Sweet Summer Love'
