CLADRASTIS, Leguminosae. C. lutea is a huge gray-barked

CLEMATIS, Ranunculaceae. Virgin’s Bower. Flowering vines. 
The white-flowered C. paniculata with small flowers and the 
pink-flowered C. montana rubens are highly ornamental and 
are easily cultivated. The large-flowered species of Clematis are 
often more difficult. They like cool, moist, but well drained 
soils and they appreciate lime. Their roots should be shaded 
and their tops exposed to sunshine. C. Jackmani has rich 
purple flowers and is the easiest of the large-flowered group to 
grow [8E, nursery].
