Joy Creek Photo Archive (c) all rights reserved	Clematis 'Nelly Moser' (Moser, 1897) is the classic barred clematis. Pale mauve sepals with darker lilac central bars. Dark red anthers. This is best grown in part shade as the delicate coloring fades in the sun. All of our Clematis are two year old plants that are suitable for immediate planting in your garden. Late spring to early summer; late summer to fall. 8-10 ft. Pale Mauve/Dark Rose flowers *Sun, Part Shade Zones 5, 6, 7, 8*
Early flowering in the spring on the previous year's growth. If you hard prune, you eliminate most or all of the early blooms. Instead, groom this after flowering by cutting back the top one-third to one-half of some stems. This encourages new growth for possible summer bloom.
