Description
Winner of the Award of Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society for its truly outstanding qualities, ‘Polish Spirit’ Clematis is a free-flowering and extremely floriferous variety featuring an explosion of rich violet purple flowers that nearly cover the foliage beginning in mid summer and continuing through the fall. The petals surround contrasting greenish-white anthers. Very vigorous throughout the season, Polish Spirit is perfect for growing up a trellis or fence and may also be trained to scramble through trees and shrubs.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Climbing 10 to 12 feet high and spreading 4 to 6 feet or more wide, the Polish Spirit Clematis is ideal for growing on fences, trellises, arches, mailbox and lamp posts, obelisks, poles, pergolas, arbors and other structures. Excellent on a tall obelisk or trellis in pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks and around other outdoor living spaces where the amazing flowers can be viewed from close up. A fine addition to Clematis gardens and purple theme gardens.
Suggested Spacing:Â 5 feet apart to cover fences, trellises, and walls
Growing Preferences
This Clematis is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather. Make sure not to plant this one too deep as it tends to smother the plant. See pruning instructions just below.
Clematis Pruning Group 3
Clematis in group 3 consist of late-flowering species that bloom from mid-summer into fall. This group flowers on the last 2 to 3 feet of the current season’s growth (new wood). They are easy to prune because you do not need to maintain any old wood. In February or March, cut each stem to a height of 1 or 2 feet. Although you will be removing good stems and buds, this treatment keeps these vigorous growers in bounds. If not pruned, these vines will quickly become a mass of old diseased woody stems producing very few flowers. Always make sure to leave two good buds below where you make your cut. New growth will emerge from these buds to produce the current seasons vines and blooms.

I ordered two of the Polish Clematis plants to climb a trellis in our yard, and could not be happier with the plants I received, as well as the customer service. The plants had a decently long journey (to Denver, CO), and one of them arrived looking a little wilted so I emailed customer service to see what they recommended I do, etc. They responded right away, and with their advice the plant made a very quick recovery. I have since planted both and they are growing like crazy. I am very please with the clematis plants I received from Wilson Bros, and would definitely purchase from them in the future!—————————————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
