Clematis 'The President' is a quintessential garden gem that has been gracing gardens since its introduction in the late 19th century. This cultivar stands out with its vibrant, large-flowered blooms that are deep purple-blue in color. Each flower showcases six to eight velvety petals, which when unfurled, present a striking contrast to the plant's rich green foliage.
One of the admirable traits of 'The President' is its hardiness. This perennial vine is known to withstand various climatic conditions, making it a favored choice for gardens in diverse regions. In terms of size, the blooms can reach impressive diameters of up to 7 inches, creating a bold visual impact especially when the plant is in full bloom.
Beyond its stunning appearance, Clematis 'The President' offers a prolonged flowering period, typically from late spring to early fall, ensuring that gardeners and admirers get to enjoy its beauty for an extended time. With proper care, including a suitable trellis or support, this vine can reach heights of up to 10 feet. Pruning, although not always necessary, can help in maintaining its shape and stimulating new growth. Its enduring popularity is a testament to both its aesthetic appeal and robust performance in the garden landscape.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
