Description

Note: All of our 1 gallon size Clematis vines are trellised 2 year old plants

Very free flowering and the most vigorous of the double Clematis varieties we have growing in our gardens, ‘Arctic Queen’ shows off abundant, fully double 5-inch flowers with creamy-white petals. The outer petals are often flushed with green. The flowers are produced on both last years vines and the current season which ensures a long bloom period from late spring or early summer to late summer or early fall. Reliable and easy to grow, this one is certainly the “queen” of double flowering Clematis!

Landscape & Garden Uses

Climbing 6 to 8 feet high and spreading 2 feet or more in width, the Artic Queen Clematis is ideal for growing on fences, trellises, arches, mailbox pots, obelisks, poles, lamp posts and other structures. Excellent for pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks and around other outdoor living spaces where the amazing flowers can be viewed and enjoyed from close up. A fine addition to Clematis gardens and white theme gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 3 feet apart to cover fences, trellises, and walls

Growing Preferences

The Arctic Queen Clematis is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather. See pruning instructions just below.

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 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.
