Let’s face it, Clematis can be a tough plant to get established in the landscape at times but ‘Blue Bird’ is guaranteed to be one of the easiest and one of the most rewarding. Canadian bred for toughness, it is an aggressive plant that is easy to be successful with and produces a flower show in April and May, before many other Clematis, making it stand out even more. In fact, even the flowers are uniquely different with 2″ diameter size, semi-double form, deep purple-blue color and a drooping almost pendulous nature that is breathtaking. This is the Clematis of choice if you are struggling to get this genus into your landscape and one to cherish even if you have plenty of others due to its unique flower and early floriferousness.
