Overview

Clematis 'Nelly Moser' is one of the best-loved large-flowered clematis, producing spectacular blooms in soft pale pink, each petal marked with a distinctive deeper pink central stripe. The impressive flowers appear in abundance during late spring and early summer, with a lighter repeat display often following in late summer, extending the season of interest.

Its elegant climbing habit makes it an excellent choice for training over trellises, arches, obelisks and fences, where the large blooms can be appreciated at eye level. Supplied approximately 65cm tall in a 2-litre pot, it is ready to establish quickly and bring vertical colour to the garden.

Why We Love It

• Large, elegant flowers create an impressive display in late spring.
• A second flush of blooms often follows later in the summer.
• Soft pink flowers complement both traditional and contemporary planting schemes.
• Perfect for growing through shrubs or climbing supports.
• Well suited to gardens where vertical interest is limited.

Plant Details

Growing Guide

Position

Grow in full sun or partial shade with a support such as a trellis, obelisk or pergola. In Irish gardens, flowering is often best where the stems receive good light while the roots remain cool and shaded by neighbouring plants or a layer of mulch.

Watering

Water regularly while establishing and during prolonged dry spells. Container-grown plants should be checked more frequently during warm weather, ensuring excess water drains away freely.

Soil

Plant in fertile, moisture-retentive soil with good drainage. Incorporating organic matter before planting helps retain moisture while maintaining healthy root growth.

Pruning

'Nelly Moser' belongs to Pruning Group 2. Remove dead or weak stems in late winter or early spring and lightly trim after the first flush of flowers if needed to encourage a second display later in the season.

Perfect For

• Trellises and fences
• Arches and pergolas
• Growing through shrubs and climbing roses
• Decorative obelisks
• Large patio containers

Good to Know

The delicate flower colour is often at its best in a position with some afternoon shade, as very strong sun can cause the blooms to fade more quickly.
