It's well worth planting this superb clematis to find out just how amazing it looks?and smells! Covered in masses of small purple, delicately scented flowers that look like blossom from July to August, this energetic climber will go on blooming until October! Keeping its appeal well into autumn, the dark green foliage provides an attractive contrast to the flowers at a time when other plants might be starting to fade. The wonderful colour and perfume of 'Sweet Summer Love' are best appreciated if you plant this climbing shrub in a large container, or against a sunny wall or fence, allowing it to clamber up free-standing or wall-mounted supports.
