Description
All of our Clematis vines are trellised 2 year old plants in a 1 gallon pot.
A chance seedling of ‘Comtesse de Bouchaud’, but with larger and fuller flowers, the John Huxtable Clematis features an incredible flower show beginning late spring and reblooming continuously to fall! The large and beautiful 6-petaled, 6″ diameter flowers have slightly reflexed, pristine-white petals surrounding a patch of creamy chartreuse anthers. John Huxtable can reach up to 12 feet in height making it a perfect selection for small arbors and pergolas, arches, small trees, fences, trellises, tall obelisks and other structures the vines will twine around. Reliable and easy to grow, this one deserves a spot in every garden where it will grow. USDA Zones 4a-9b.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Climbing up to 8 to 12 feet in height with a spread of 4 feet or more, the John Huxtable Clematis is ideal for growing on smaller arbors and pergolas, fences, trellises, arches, tall obelisks, poles, lamp posts and other structures. Excellent for pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks and around other outdoor living spaces where the amazing flowers can be viewed and enjoyed from close up. A fine addition to Clematis gardens and white theme gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 4 to 5 feet apart to cover fences, trellises, and walls
Growing Preferences
The John Huxtable Clematis is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. We suggest a minimum of 4 hours direct sunlight per day for best flowering and overall performance. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather. See pruning instructions just below.
Clematis Pruning Group 3
Clematis in group 3 consist of late-flowering species that bloom from early or mid-summer into fall. This group flowers on the last 2 to 3 feet of the current season’s growth (new wood). They are easy to prune because you do not need to maintain any old wood. In February or March, cut each stem to a height of 1 or 2 feet. Although you will be removing good stems and buds, this treatment keeps these vigorous growers in bounds. If not pruned, these vines will quickly become a mass of old diseased woody stems producing very few flowers. Always make sure to leave two good buds below where you make your cut. New growth will emerge from these buds to produce the current seasons vines and blooms.

Looking forward to the stupendous white flowers on this clematis vine. The two plants have been in the ground for only a couple weeks now. These delicate little specimens arrived at my door by FedEx…carefully wrapped and boxed. I was skeptical about ordering plants on-line…and perhaps with some vendors, we should be skeptical.
I have now ordered multiple times from Wilson Bros Gardens. The quality of the plants is outstanding and the boxing and shipping are top notch professional. I was skeptical the first time…but now I order with confidence that the quality will be there in the plant, packaging and the total Wilson Bros experience.———————————————Thanks for the photos. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchase for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
