Clematis viticella
‘Royal Velours’
at Digging Dog
Simple and beautiful, Clematis includes over 300 named cultivars and even more wild species than the rose. Our selections offer opulent blossoms, attractive, carefree foliage, and ornamental seed heads, in exchange for a minimum of attention. Use them to cover just about every stump and dead tree, as well as on trellises, arbors, pergolas, walls and tall shrubs. They prefer to be planted slightly deep in cool,
well drained soil, with mulch or a ground cover to shade their feet; provide a support and let them climb.
Medium Band. Further reading about Clematis:An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Clematis by Mary K. Toomey and Everett Leeds Clematis viticella ‘Royal Velours’ 
With a velvety texture and satiny sheen, ‘Royal Velours’s intense, dark wine-purple flowers are considered the “darkest of the dark.” Produced in profusion, the seminodding, four-tepaled blooms curve back at their tips, and are centered by greenish black anthers. Superimpose this deciduous Clematis against a silvery background like Teucrium fruticans (Select Form) and a sumptuous spectacle is yours for the viewing.
Blooms July–September. Size: 10'–12' high x 0" & spreading; hardy to zone 4. Clematis viticella Royal Velours (t-0223)
