Verdeia tips
- Upon receipt, take the plant out of its box and allow it 24 to 48 hours to acclimate in a bright place without direct sunlight.
- Check the soil moisture before watering; add a little water only if the surface is dry.
- Avoid heat sources and drafts, and keep a slightly humid atmosphere to preserve the beauty of the foliage.
- Wait 2 to 3 weeks before any repotting, allowing the plant time to stabilize.
- Gently wipe the leaves to remove dust and observe them: slight stress during the first few days is completely normal.

Clematis ‘Niobe’ — Spectacular velvety red clematis
The Clematis ‘Niobe’ is a clematis with large velvet red flowers, spectacular and refined. Its long and intense blooming, from May to September, transforms balconies, terraces, and pergolas into true showcases of color and romance.
Compact, vigorous, and hardy, it adapts to all urban environments: in a pot, against a trellis or wall, it blooms generously all summer. An essential choice to enhance an outdoor space with elegance and intensity.
Exposure & placement
The clematis ‘Niobe’ loves light but prefers to keep its roots cool. It thrives in sun or partial shade, with a protected base and a sturdy support to climb.
- Exposure: sun or partial shade.
- Location: against a wall, trellis, pergola, or fence.
- Maximum adult height: 2 to 3 m depending on conditions.
- Soil: fertile, fresh, and well-drained.
Verdeia tip: keep the base in the shade and the top in the sun 🌞 — it’s the key to long-lasting and abundant flowering.
Blooming & decorative interest
The large flowers (12 to 15 cm) of Clematis ‘Niobe’ stand out for their velvety texture and intense red shade. Each petal reveals dark, almost purple reflections, highlighting the bright golden center.
- Flowering period: May to September.
- Flower color: deep velvet red.
- Flower diameter: 12 to 15 cm.

Watering & maintenance
- Watering: regular during the growing period to keep the soil cool.

- Pruning: light after flowering to encourage a second wave.
- Fertilizer: rich in potassium in spring and summer for abundant flowering.
- Hardiness: very good, down to –20 °C.
In a pot, ensure good drainage and regular watering — clematis likes cool soil, but not waterlogged.
Decor ideas & plant pairings
The clematis ‘Niobe’ pairs wonderfully with other climbing or flowering plants for a romantic and lively effect.
- Elegant contrast: with white or pale pink climbing roses.
- Extended blooming: combine it with Clematis armandii or C. viticella.
