Product Description
Clematis 'Ooh La La' offers a truly eye-catching display, with vibrant two-tone pink flowers that evolve in colour and form as they mature. Each bloom opens with crimped and wavy pale mauvy-pink margins and a bold deep pink central bar, creating a dynamic and expressive look throughout its flowering season.
Introduced at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2009 and bred by renowned plantsman Raymond Evison, this clematis quickly earned acclaim for its floriferous nature and compact size. It reaches just 90cm (around 3 feet), making it an ideal candidate for container growing on balconies, patios, or in borders with vertical support.
The flowering period spans from June to September, providing months of continuous colour. As the blooms age, their shape and hue subtly shift, adding further charm and interest to this already standout climber.
