Vancouver Mystic Gem Clematis
- Enormous 6–8" blooms blend blush-to-deep-rose pink on crisp white for a showstopping bicolor display.
- Compact clematis that’s perfect for patios and small spaces—train up a trellis or let it weave through shrubs.
- Long bloom window from late spring into early fall; remove spent flowers to encourage continuous color.
- Easy-to-grow climber (Pruning Group 2) with twining stems that quickly reach 5–7 ft. with support.
Vancouver Mystic Gem Clematis (Clematis x ‘Mystic Gem’) delivers a luxurious, long-season show of oversized bicolor flowers—soft blush through deep rose pink painted over clean white petals—for dramatic vertical color in compact gardens. This fast, twining vine climbs readily on a trellis, obelisk, fence, or espalier, and it also looks stunning allowed to meander through shrub beds for a romantic cottage effect. Give it sun on top with cool, sheltered roots, consistent moisture as it establishes, and simple Group 2 pruning after flowering for years of spectacular blooms from late spring into early fall.
Plant Description
A compact, large-flowered clematis with exceptionally big, bicolor blooms. Twining stems climb with support and add vertical interest without overwhelming small spaces.
Flowers & Bloom Time
Enormous 6–8 inch flowers display a range of pink tones over white—light blush to deep rose—blooming from late spring into early fall for an extended season of color.
Habit & Size
Fast-growing, twining stems quickly reach 5–7 ft. tall with support. Ideal for trellises, tripods, fences, and small arbors.
Sun & Exposure
Full sun to partial sun. For best performance, provide sun to the top growth while keeping the root zone cool and shaded.
Watering
Water deeply when the top inch of soil is dry. Maintain regular moisture during establishment, then reduce frequency once well-rooted.
Soil & Mulch
Thrives in well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. Mulch the soil surface to conserve moisture and help keep roots cool.
Feeding
Feed regularly beginning in spring to support vigorous growth and prolonged flowering.
Pruning (Group 2)
Pruning Group 2: prune after flowering. Lightly shape and remove weak or dead stems as needed, keeping healthy framework for repeat performance.
Training & Support
Provide a trellis, obelisk, or wires for twining stems. Tie in gently as the vine grows to create a full, evenly covered display.
Landscape Uses
Beautiful in containers, borders, and espaliered along fences or walls. Also charming when allowed to naturally weave through shrub beds for a softer, layered look.
Wildlife & Garden Benefits
Flowers attract pollinators and butterflies, adding life and movement to patios and garden borders.
Seasonal Notes
Deciduous. Cut back and tidy according to Group 2 timing; remove spent flowers during bloom to encourage ongoing flowering through the season.
