Nelly Moser is one of the clematis that everybody wants. And no wonder. The bi-color flowers can reach a whopping 6-8 inches across. I've grown it, and can tell you it never disappoints. As another bonus, Nelly Moser offers two blooming seasons: spring and fall.

This old reliable classic clematis was introduced in France in 1897, and has really never been topped. Who introduced it? Mr. Moser, of course.

Nelly Moser is a type 2 Clematis. Clematis in this group produce flowers from both the prior year's growth and the current seasons. The best time to prune them is in early spring.
