Why Choose Clematis armandii for Your Garden?
Clematis armandii is a dramatic and elegant evergreen climber that’s prized for its early spring flowers, gorgeous scent, and year-round glossy foliage. It’s one of the few clematis that keeps its leaves through winter, making it invaluable for adding structure and screening in the garden.
In spring, it bursts into bloom with masses of almond-scented flowers, often before many other plants have even stirred. It’s a showstopper on fences, walls, and pergolas, and ideal for adding height, coverage, and fragrance where you need it most.
Perfect for:
Covering large fences, sheds, or sunny walls
Adding evergreen interest to pergolas and trellises
Fragrance near doorways, patios, and seating areas
South- or west-facing walls where it can bask in sun and shelter
Its lush, leathery leaves provide screening and privacy even when not in flower — making this clematis a real all-rounder.

Growing Tips
Planting Location
Choose a sheltered, sunny spot — ideally against a south- or west-facing wall. Clematis armandii thrives in warmth and protection, especially in colder regions.
Soil
Prefers moist, fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid planting in very exposed, windy, or waterlogged sites. Like most clematis, it appreciates cool roots — mulch or underplant to keep the base shaded.
Pruning
Belongs to Pruning Group 1, so only needs light pruning after flowering. Tidy up any straggly or damaged stems to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth.
Support
This is a strong climber that needs sturdy support — such as a pergola, wire-trained fence, or trellis. Use soft ties to guide new stems in their first season.
