Monrovia Evergreen Clematis
Best fragrant climber for year round garden privacy and vertical interest.
This vigorous climber is the ultimate solution for blank walls and bare fences, offering year-round privacy with its thick, leathery foliage. While it demands a permanent spot in the ground rather than a pot, the payoff is a spectacular spring show of fragrant, star-shaped blooms that effortlessly transform vertical spaces.
