The clematis 'Akafuji' is a Japanese cultivar from breeder Tatsuyuki Oikawa. Its name alludes to Mount Fuji glowing in the sunset - and indeed the flowers shine in strong red to red-purple. They open flat and measure around 8 cm; the cultivar has a marked tendency to produce semi-double to double blooms.
Growing about 250 cm tall, 'Akafuji' suits trellises, obelisks and pergolas. The first flush appears from May to July, followed by a second flowering from August to September on new growth. Its rich red brings colour to the garden over many weeks.
'Akafuji' is hardy (zone 5, down to around -28 °C). Cut the plant back to about 100 cm in June; this corresponds to the light pruning of pruning group 2.
