Clematis 'Edward Prichard' traces back to a cross between Clematis recta and Clematis heracleifolia var. davidiana, made by the Australian breeder Russell Prichard before 1950. Its 4-5 cm, strongly fragrant flowers appear white with pink tones, with four - rarely five - wedge-shaped sepals and yellowish-cream stamens.
From July to August, 'Edward Prichard' produces its fragrant flowers in abundance. At around 125 cm tall, it grows as a herbaceous, non-clinging sub-shrub with upright to slightly scrambling stems - ideal for a herbaceous border, where it likes to lean on neighbouring plants, or with light support. It thrives best in a sunny to lightly shaded spot with well-drained, moderately moist soil.
'Edward Prichard' is reliably hardy (zone 5, to about -23.4°C). As it flowers on the current year's growth, cut the plant back hard to about 20 cm in March - this encourages dense new growth and abundant flowering in summer. The sap can irritate the skin, so it is best to wear gloves when pruning.
