Clematis ‘Proteus’ is a premium nursery-grown deciduous climbing plant supplied in a 3-litre recyclable nursery pot. Each plant is cultivated by specialist growers using high-quality, peat-free compost formulated to promote healthy root development, strong shoots, and consistent flowering performance. The growing medium includes organic matter and balanced nutrients that support the plant from planting through its first full growing season.
The root system is well established within the container, ensuring quick and reliable establishment when planted into garden borders, raised beds, or large patio containers. This makes Clematis ‘Proteus’ suitable for both new and experienced gardeners, as the plant settles quickly and begins producing vigorous growth soon after planting.
Clematis ‘Proteus’ typically reaches a mature height of approximately 2 to 3 metres, with a spread of around 1 metre, making it ideal for training up trellises, fences, arbours, and pergolas. Its upright climbing habit allows it to add height and structure to garden spaces without becoming invasive.
The large double blooms measure approximately 12–15 cm across in spring, followed by slightly smaller single flowers later in the season. These layered flowers create a bold focal point wherever the plant is grown.
Supplied in a 3-litre nursery pot measuring approximately 18–20 cm high and 18 cm in diameter, the plant is well established and ready for planting on arrival. Its manageable size and strong root system make it suitable for garden borders, raised beds, or large patio containers.
