These delicate-colored, medium-to-large flowers are just the sweetest things to grace a container or trellis. The soft-hued striped sepals are slightly wavy and totally eye-catching. This Swedish, heritage cultivar grows to a medium height and looks darling on a trellis against the house or ambling through the garden and over shrubs. Deadhead and trim the plant mid-season to get another showing of beautiful blooms later in the season. Clematis ‘Ivan Olsson’
