Olympia Clematis Plants
Olympia Clematis Plants
'Olympia' Clematis with large purple-pink flowers and a long flowering season.
Browse all of our Clematis.
Delivery season: Clematis are delivered in pots year round, when in stock. It's usually best not to plant out pot grown plants in winter, but to keep them until Spring, because they'll establish faster in warm soil and give you better first year growth.
Choosing a size: Small plants are cheaper and more forgiving of less than ideal aftercare, so they're best for a big planting project. If instant impact is your priority, or if you are only buying a few plants for use in a place where it's convenient to water them well in their first year, then you may as well use bigger ones. All our climbing plants come in standard pot sizes.
Features

Growing Olympia Clematis
It'll be happiest in alkaline or neutral soil. Fully hardy, it's best to plant it out of full sun in the Southern half of the island, because too much sun, especially at midday, tends to fade the colour.
History & Trivia
Part of the Boulevard collection by Raymond Evison and Poulsen Nursery, which are either very low climbers, or dwarf varieties that grow like a shrub. All of them are great for pots and patios. Introduced 2016.
The ancient town of Olympia, which is on the Peloponnese peninsula, should not be confused with Mount Olympus all the way up in Northern Greece, which is the penthouse suite abode of Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Hermes, and Dionysus (Hades lives in the basement apartment). Olympia is where the original Olympic Games were held, and the length of the stadium there became the standard measurement stadion.
