Clematis Cloud Burst

A Bold Splash of Colour for Every Garden
Cloud Burst has medium sized blooms that are a striking contrast of colors from purple to pink with a pale-yellow center and dark purple stamens. It is an easy grower that will flower on both old and new wood. Cloud Burst flowers from mid-summer into autumn.

Vigorous Growth with a Manageable Size
Growing to a height of 2 meters, Cloud Burst is perfect for training up trellises, fences, arches, or pergolas. Despite its strong flowering performance, it maintains a tidy, manageable habit that suits both large and small spaces. It thrives in full sun to part shade, and like most clematis, it appreciates cool, shaded roots—an easy fix with mulch or companion plantings.

Simple Care, Spectacular Results
This variety belongs to Pruning Group 3, meaning it’s easy to care for: just give it a hard prune in late winter (July–August), cutting stems back to ground level when dormant over winter. This encourages fresh, vigorous growth and maximizes the flower display. Its resilience and reliable blooming habit make Clematis Cloud Burst is an excellent choice for both novice and experienced gardeners.

A Proven Performer in South African Conditions
Well-suited to a wide range of South African climates, Clematis Cloud Burst performs best in well-drained soil with consistent moisture and good air circulation. Its long flowering season and  color make it ideal for creating living walls, garden screens, or vibrant vertical accents. If you’re looking to add drama, depth, and long-lasting beauty to your garden, Cloud Burst delivers with flair and dependability.
