Sun, Part Shade     Zones 5-8 Purple flowers
The Japanese name may be a mouthful, but it translates to something like "purple display." That describes the lotus-like red purple sepals or possibly the red purple anthers atop white filaments.

One of life's pleasures is finding a plant that teaches you something new. Here is a compact, early, sometimes double, but mostly single-blooming vine that can easily be made to bloom on a 3-ft. pot-stake. This was one of the first European clematis that was marketed as having that habit and indeed it paved the way for a new line of plants. Ideal for patio containers and small gardens.

150-117-1     Clematis 'Yamato' (Seijuro Arai, 1954)       
Sun, Part Shade     Zones 4-9 Blue Purple flowers
(From a seedling of Clematis 'The President'. 'Yamato' is a classical name for Japan.) Because this does not grow tall but is free branching, the Japanese sell this plant as a container plant. It makes an equally fine garden plant. The lovely, somewhat cupped, rich purple blue flowers have deep purple red anther tips and white filaments.  May to October. bloom   6-8 ft.

150-671D4     Clematis 'Yugiri' (Ozawa/Chikuma)       
Sun, Part Shade     Zones 6-9 Pale Violet flowers
Customers have been asking for a pale bell-shaped clematis and thanks to our friends the Chikumas we now have this late hybrid from Mr. Ozawa. The 1- to 1.5-inch nodding bell flowers are very pale violet on the outside. Their recurved sepal tips reveal the white interior of the bells. The numerous flowers over an exceptionally long period, the nice pinnate foliage and the persistent sculptural seedheads all make this a terrific short vine. The name refers to a character in The Tales of Genji, the world's oldest novel. An alternative reading is 'Evening Mist'.  June to October. bloom   3-4 ft.

150-230-1     Clematis 'Yuki Komachi' (Chieko Kurasawa)       
Part Shade     Zones 4-9 Cream/Pale Lavender Blue flowers
(The name is an allusion to a Japanese poet in the snow.) Surely one of the most lovely of all clematis. Although Japanese texts say this is somewhat dwarf in nature, our plant grows 12 feet up a Viburnum and spills down like a pale cascade. The 4-inch flowers are creamy white with lavender blue margins that fade as they age. The sepals are cup-shaped and tend to face upward. We do not prune our plant but know that this will bloom on new wood.  May to October. bloom   8-10 ft.
