Like brilliant, twinkling stars, the jewel-toned blooms on this Clematis add a magical quality to their surroundings. Stunning pale violet and star-shaped, these blooms cover the vine with charming soft color that lasts for weeks in late spring to summer. This vine is a small, manageable size with a mounding habit–growing naturally into the ideal shape for container gardening and hanging baskets. Also, as it’s a non-climbing variety, it’s useful for filling out and adding interest in a garden bed. For a truly unique look, pair it with a slightly larger Clematis, such as Tranquilite, in a large container. Clematis ‘Bijou’
