    I'm told this is not a clematis. The mauve flowers can just be seen.

    Sorry for pics on their sides!

          It looks like a viticella Clematis.

                    Does anyone have an online supplier in the UK they can particularly recommend?
                    I work for a mail delivery company and some of the plants get battered in transit (think T&M) due to poorly designed packaging.
                    Thx
