Description
Not maroon or purple red, the Boulevard Nubia Clematis is a free-flowering superstar featuring a profusion of large star-shaped flowers with vivid true red petals surrounding a tuft of purple anthers. The flowers start coming in late spring and don’t stop until late summer with a second cycle in fall! Climbing to a modest 4 to 5 feet in height makes Nubia a fine selection for smaller garden spaces or growing on an obelisk or trellis in containers. Butterflies and hummingbirds will flock to the deep red flowers and you can cut and enjoy them indoors in your favorite vase. A truly stunning selection!
NOTE: The flowers of Nubia Clematis will be true red in full sun (7 hours or more of direct sunlight per day), and will have Purple tones in part shade to shade.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Climbing 3 to 5 feet high and spreading 2 to 3 feet or more in width, the Nubia Clematis is ideal for growing on short fences, trellises, mailbox pots, obelisks, poles, lamp posts and other structures. Excellent for pots, planters and other containers for situating on patios, decks and around other outdoor living spaces where the amazing flowers can be viewed from close up. A fine addition to Clematis gardens, red theme gardens and cottage gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 2+ feet apart to cover short fences, trellises, and walls
Growing Preferences
This Clematis is easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Though it tolerates dry periods when established, it will appreciate an occasional watering in prolonged periods of dry weather. Make sure not to plant this one too deep as it tends to smother the plant. See pruning instructions just below.
Clematis Pruning Group 2
Clematis in Group 2 consist of all the early, large-flowered hybrid clematis that bloom in late spring or early summer and maybe again in late summer. Clematis in this group should be pruned lightly in late winter or early spring. Pruning consists of removing weak and crossing shoots then thinning down the plant to a structure of evenly spaced one and two year old stems. Cut each stem just above a pair of healthy buds. Plants in this group have the tendency to become bare at the base as they mature. You can under-plant with small shrubs or perennials to help conceal the bare stems. Alternatively, you can often force a flush of new growth from the base by cutting the vine back to 18 inches immediately after the flush of bloom.
An alternate method of pruning Group 2 clematis is to prune only every three or four years. In this case, the clematis should be pruned as described for Group 3 clematis. This will produce a weak first flush of flowers in the summer after pruning.

I bought this a couple of months ago and it’s doing very well. This clematis is as close to a red color as you will ever get.
I am very happy with it for its first year in the garden. I expect the blooms will be a little bigger next year. It was shipped in excellent condition. I will buy from Wilson Brothers again.—————————————-Thanks for the photo. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchase for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
