Description
All of our Clematis vines are trellised 2 year old plants in a 1 gallon pot.
From Polish clematis breeder Brother Stefan Francsak, a monk who has produced several outstanding and popular hybrids, comes the exceptionally vigorous and floriferous John Paul II Clematis. It features large flowers 4 to 6 inches across with pearly white petals gently flushed with soft pink bars surrounding a cluster deep red spidery stamens. Absolutely beautiful! The flowers start coming in late spring to early summer and continue coming through late summer to early fall. The pink comes out more in the flowers towards the end of summer, even more so when the vine is growing with some filtered sun or shade in the midafternoon. Climbing 8 to 12 feet high makes John Paul a fine selection for growing on a fence, trellis, obelisk, arch, pergola or any other structure its vines can climb and twine around.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Climbing 8 to 12 feet in height with a spread of 2 to 4 feet, the John Paul II Clematis is ideal for growing on arbors, pergolas, fences, trellises, arches, tall obelisks, poles, lamp posts and other structures its vines can twine around. Excellent for pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks and around other outdoor living spaces where the beautiful flowers can be viewed and enjoyed from close up all summer long. A fine addition to Clematis gardens and white theme gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 2 to 3 feet apart to cover fences, trellises, and walls
Growing Preferences
The John Paul II is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. We suggest a minimum of 4 hours direct sunlight per day for best flowering and overall performance. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather.
Clematis Pruning Group 2
Clematis in Group 2 consist of all the early, large-flowered hybrid clematis that bloom in late spring or early summer and maybe again in late summer. Clematis in this group should be pruned lightly in late winter or early spring. Pruning consists of removing weak and crossing shoots then thinning down the plant to a structure of evenly spaced one and two year old stems. Cut each old stem just above a pair of healthy buds. Plants in this group have the tendency to become bare at the base as they mature. You can under-plant with small shrubs or perennials to help conceal the bare stems. Alternatively, you can often force a flush of new growth from the base by cutting the vine back to 18 inches immediately after the flush of bloom.
An alternate method of pruning Group 2 clematis is to prune only every three or four years. In this case, the clematis should be pruned as described for Group 3 Clematis. This will produce a weak first flush of flowers in the summer after pruning.
