Clematis viorna Groometown Garnet Peltandra Once the tuber is largeClematis viorna 'Groometown Garnet' is a form of our little known native clematis (Illinois south to Georgia) shared by Plant Delights plantsman Zac Hill from his collection in Guilford County, NC. For us, Clematis viorna 'Groometown Garnet' makes a 12' tall vine adorned with an abundance of small lavender bells, each with upturned white tips, starting in mid May and continuing into summer seriously cute and no cutting back required.
