Clematis Little Lemons was selected because of the extraordinary dwarf habit, the long flowering period, and the final flowers that give seed fluff that last a couple of weeks. In the Netherlands, the flowers draw specifically bees and bumblebees. Clematis Little Lemons makes stems of 8-12″ long with sometimes an outlier to 20″. The leaf is pinnate and green colored. The yellow flowers are nodding and beautifully bell-shaped. After flowering, the shiny seed fluff appears; the side flowers usually have no seed fluff. Clematis Little Lemons flowers from mid-May to early September. Prune in March to 4″ above the ground. This Clematis belongs to the Tangutica Group.
