Clematis are known for showy flowers, but the Boulevard® Poseidon™ Clematis takes things to a new level. Large, 7-petaled flowers measure 4 to 5 inches wide and bloom from early summer through fall. The lavender flowers have magenta accents along the center of the ruffled petals, providing dimension. Each flower has seven petals with pointed tips and is long-lasting. Mature plants will be engulfed in flowers during the bloom season for a stunning appearance. Green foliage provides additional color and interest. The Clematis uvaria 'Evipo113' has a compact form, making it a good choice for areas with limited space.
This Clematis has a vining form, so it will need a trellis or support for the woody, twining stems to climb. Feature this clematis along a fence or stone wall. The compact form makes the Boulevard® Poseidon™ Clematis suitable for a container on a porch, patio, or balcony. Use it to frame a front door or garage door. The bi-color flowers also bring butterflies and hummingbirds who come to feed on the nectar. Grow the Boulevard® Poseidon Clematis in zones 4 through 9
Boulevard® Poseidon Clematis Care
Plant the Boulevard® Poseidon Clematis in full to part sun. The ideal location will feature a shady spot for the base of the plant but allow the vines to receive full sun. This perennial needs rich, well-drained soil. Container plants and young plants need consistent water, while established plants in the ground only need water during a dry period. Provide about one inch of water per week. Clematises are heavy-feeders and do best when fertilized every two weeks during the growing season. Use a balanced fertilizer.
Apply a thick layer of mulch around the base of the clematis in spring to retain moisture and protect against warm summer temperatures. Reapply mulch in the winter to ward off chilly temperatures. Prune in late winter to remove dead growth and keep the vines in bounds. Trimming the stems back encourages new, full growth each year. The Boulevard® Poseidon™ Clematis blooms on new and old wood.
Boulevard® Poseidon Clematis Spacing
The Boulevard® Poseidon Clematis has a climbing form and reaches 3 to 4 feet tall and 18 to 24 inches wide. Space plants 2 feet apart when creating a continuous planting or plant one plant in a 12-inch container.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
