Deciduous broadleaf Summer blooms |
Hania is Polish clematis variety bread by Szczepan Marczyński and introduced in 2001. It produces bi-coloured, single flowers in late spring and again in late summer. They are deep velvety purple red as they emerge, and their margins become paler as the flowers mature. It prefers cooler locations, sheltered from the hottest summer sun, therefore partial shade will be ideal.
It belongs to Group 2 clematis: in early spring remove dead and damaged stems before growth begins, trimming all remaining stems to where strong buds are visible. These buds provide a framework of second-year shoots that flower in late spring and early summer. We suggest pruning the plant after the spring flowering has finished by about a third or even half its size. It will re-emerge and flower again and quite reliably from August until October.
Clematis likes deep, fertile, moist but well-drained soil that remains cool. You can grow a plant below clematis that will provide shade for its roots. Add garden compost in late winter and mulch it well. Fully hardy to min. -34°C (USDA zone 4).
