Clematis 'Blue Gem' is a cultivar with a long history: the English nursery George Jackman & Son bred it in 1875 from a cross of Clematis lanuginosa and 'Standishii'. It belongs to the patens group of clematis hybrids and bears large single violet flowers, 10 to 15 cm across, made up of 6 to 8 petals and set off by deep red stamens.
'Blue Gem' starts flowering in June and carries on until August. At around 300 cm tall it makes a vigorous climber for a trellis, obelisk or climbing frame, and it also has room in a larger container. It does best in a sunny to partly shaded position.
'Blue Gem' is hardy (zone 6, -23.3 to -17.8 °C). Cut the plant back to about 100 cm in June; this keeps the growth vigorous and encourages further flowers through the summer.
