Description / Clematis 'Duchess of Edinburgh' White Clematis

Clematis 'Duchess of Edinburgh' epitomizes botanical elegance, gracing gardens with its stunning display of white flowers from late spring to late summer.

This deciduous woody vine exhibits a moderately vigorous growth habit, boasting bright green leaves that retain their freshness throughout the season.
