Clematis montana ‘Picton’s Variety’ is supplied as a healthy, nursery-grown climber, selected for its vigour, reliability, and striking deep pink flowers. A member of the Montana group, this variety is known for producing abundant four-petalled blooms in late spring, creating a dense and vibrant display. Each flower’s rich pink hue stands out beautifully against the plant’s bronzed foliage, giving a moody yet elegant effect that enhances any garden backdrop.
This climber is exceptionally fast-growing and vigorous, making it perfect for quickly covering walls, fences, sheds, pergolas, or any unsightly structures. It scrambles naturally through trees and hedgerows, providing both privacy and a lush, floral feature in a short time. Its adaptability allows it to perform well in sun or partial shade, and its hardiness ensures it remains reliable year after year.
Clematis montana ‘Picton’s Variety’ can reach heights of 6–8 metres and a spread of 3–5 metres, making it ideal for large walls, fences, pergolas, and sheds. Its large, four-petalled blooms measure approximately 4–6cm across and appear in dense clusters during late spring, creating an impressive display. The bronzed foliage remains attractive throughout the season, even after flowering has finished. As a deciduous climber, it dies back in winter but returns vigorously in spring. Its rapid growth habit and shade tolerance make it perfect for gardeners seeking fast coverage, vertical interest, and rich, deep colour in both sunny and partially shaded positions. Ideal for cottage gardens, rustic themes, and any garden feature requiring quick and attractive screening.
