3.5" Pot Sweet Summer Clematis (Clematis paniculata 'Sweet Summer Love')
Sweet Summer Love is a sweet-smelling, flower-loaded powerhouse! A newer take on the classic Sweet Autumn clematis, this variety blooms earlier, with fragrant cranberry-red to purple flowers that fade to soft lavender tones over time. It covers trellises, fences, and arbors in a fragrant cloud of color from mid-summer to fall.
Fast-growing and floriferous, Sweet Summer Love offers both structure and sensory delight—an easy-care option for adding romance, fragrance, and pollinator activity to your garden.
Why We Love It:
Earlier blooming than traditional Sweet Autumn
Hundreds of star-shaped, sweetly scented flowers
Rich color shift from cranberry to lavender
Incredible for privacy screens, arches, and fences
Pollinator and butterfly magnet!

Height: 10–12 ft
