(Clematis terniflora.) Sweet Autumn Clematis. This very hardy climber from the Orient is a rampant grower that will reach 30 feet. A mature plant is a gorgeous sight when covered with pure white, fragrant flowers in late summer and early fall. Silvery, filagreed seed heads follow as an encore. Provide a sturdy support, such as fence.

For beautiful colors, extravagance of blooms, and graceful habit, nothing compares with Clematis, the queen of the flowering vines. Whether used on posts or fences, they will enrich the landscape. Give them good soil, reasonable moisture, and shade at their roots.
