Richard Hodson has a National Plant Collection of Clematis viticella, displayed in 1 acre garden in West Lancashire. Richard also holds a National Collection of Clematis Texensis and Viorna Groups.
The viticellas are a group of vigorous, hardy, summer flowering clematis. Most have nodding bell flowers, similar to the species, in a good range of colours; whites, blues, purples, pinks and reds.
Richard is looking forward to telling you more about his National Collection.
