Clematis ‘Reiman’ uspp#22652

Posted in Clematis, Kivistik Clematis Collection, Perennials, Plant Portfolio, Vines

Clematis Reiman has such a gorgeous beetroot purple color, accented with maroon red bar and cream to maroon colored anthers. An amazing abundance of blooms, continuously and very prolifically from late spring to late summer.

Very cold hardy, bred to withstand the cold climates of Estonia makes Reiman advantageous. As with all of the fine Kivistik clematis hybrid selections, this clematis blooms annually, developing flowers on the current seasons growth. Super easy to prune at the end of the season but also cut back drastically mid summer and you will have another fresh flowering clematis for the summer.  The Kivistiks have resolved the frustrations of the past for the clematis gardeners! They will have success!

Display in pretty container for patio or the garden. Reiman is also a wonderful cut flower!

Care: Plant in sun to partial shade in fertile soil. Clematis should always be planted in a deeply dug, loosened soil with plenty of added humus and nutrients. Clematis are quite able to adapt to most soil conditions. Extremely heavy soils, like clay or limestone can have their drainage improved by adding peat,compost and sand or grit. Always be sure of good drainage.  If your garden is acid, give a dressing of lime once a year.

The best time to plant clematis in the garden is between August-October, soil temperatures are good then and the roots can establish easier. The best time to plant clematis in a container is in spring.A container will heat up quicker and the optimal temperature at the roots will be achieved. The container should hold at least 20 litres of soil but the bigger the better! Growing medium should be of highest quality.

Water regularly during the half year of summer and when watering, keep the lower leaves of the plant dry! Always feed with an application of well balanced general fertilizer and begin in April when growth starts. Further applications could be needed during the summer.
