Clematis Sen-no-Kaze is a beautiful and unique cultivar that brings an air of elegance to any garden. Bred in Japan, this variety is celebrated for its striking, creamy white flowers that open into delicate, star-shaped blossoms. Each flower measures approximately 10 to 15 centimeters in diameter and is adorned with pale greenish undertones, giving it a soft, understated charm. The flowers are enhanced by a subtle fragrance, making it not only visually appealing but also aromatic, adding to its allure in the garden.
This clematis blooms from late spring to early summer, with the potential for a second, lighter flush of blooms later in the season. It typically grows to a height of about 2 to 3 meters, making it ideal for climbing over trellises, pergolas, or fences, where it can create a dramatic yet refined display. Sen-no-Kaze prefers well-drained, moist soil and benefits from a sunny location with some partial shade during the hottest parts of the day.
As a member of pruning group 2, it requires light pruning after the first bloom to promote further growth and flowering. With its graceful flowers and gentle fragrance, Sen-no-Kaze is perfect for gardeners looking to add a touch of tranquility and elegance to their outdoor spaces.
