Boulevard® Ravel™ Clematis (Clematis ‘Evipo122’) lights up the garden with rich, velvety purple blooms brushed with rosy undertones. These wide-open flowers appear in late spring on new growth, continuing sporadically into late summer for a long season of color. Reaching a manageable height of 4–5 feet, Ravel™ offers big impact in smaller spaces, whether climbing a trellis or spilling from a container. Its striking petals contrast beautifully against medium-green foliage, creating a memorable focal point that butterflies and hummingbirds find irresistible.
In addition to its captivating display, Boulevard® Ravel™ Clematis is known for its Group 3 pruning classification, which means it blooms reliably on current-season stems. Bred by the renowned Raymond Evison, this variety is exceptionally easy to maintain and thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it versatile for different garden styles. It pairs well with shrub roses or other vertical vines for enhanced visual interest in borders and containers.
Boulevard® Ravel™ Clematis Care
Select a location that receives at least six hours of daily sunlight, though some afternoon shade in hotter areas may prolong blooms. Prepare a site with well-draining, moderately fertile soil, and plant the crown about 2–4 inches below the surface to shield dormant buds. Regular watering helps the deep roots develop properly, and a low-nitrogen, balanced fertilizer in early spring supports robust growth. Cover the root zone with mulch or groundcover to keep it cool and maintain even moisture levels.
Cut back dead or damaged stems any time, and prune fully in late winter or early spring by reducing stems to about a foot above ground level or to healthy buds. This stimulates new shoots, which carry the season’s flowers. Container plants may need slightly more frequent watering and occasional repotting to ensure healthy root development. Keep a simple trellis or support structure ready, as Clematis quickly twines and climbs once new growth appears.
Boulevard® Ravel™ Clematis Spacing
Allow at least 2 to 3 feet between Ravel™ and other plants for adequate airflow and vine expansion. If growing in rows along a fence, space vines similarly to prevent overcrowding. When planting in a container, opt for a pot at least 12 to 14 inches wide, providing enough room for the root system and any companion groundcovers or annuals.

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. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
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). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

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.

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.
