Clematis texensis Gravetye Beauty is a very popular clematis and has been a trend setter for several years. The flower is trumpet shaped and deep red when you look at it. However, the reverse side of the flower is lighter with pink markings. This front-back two-toned effect is the first reason for its desirability. The second reason is the flowers have the texture of velvet. This clematis is a quite stunning cultivar, easy to grow and the deep red will look resplendent in your garden as it climbs up a trellis, fence, or wall. Clematis texensis Gravetye Beauty certainly 'cuts a dash' when in full red glory. Clematis texensis Gravetye Beauty prefers to be grown in moist, well-drained soil in sun or part shade, with its roots in the shade. Reaching an approximate height of 2.5m, she is fully hardy requiring no winter protection.
