Moongate Mocha™ Clematis brings a moody, magical elegance to the garden with foliage that emerges a velvety burgundy-chocolate before deepening into a dark, glossy bronze-green. Against this rich backdrop, soft satin-pink flowers burst into bloom, each with a glowing lime-yellow center that creates an irresistible contrast. When the vine reaches its peak in late spring, it's nothing short of a floral fireworks show.

This Clematis montana cultivar is a natural climber with the heart of an adventurer—give it a trellis, an arbor, a fence, or even a humble mailbox, and it will drape it in layered color and texture. Its generous bloom season stretches from late spring into early summer, drawing hummingbirds, bees, and passing admirers alike. Even when it's not in flower, the dark foliage keeps the plant interesting, offering sculptural appeal long after the last petals fade.

Despite its dramatic looks, Moongate Mocha™ Clematis is refreshingly easy-going. It's vigorous without being fussy and requires very little pruning to look its best. With its blend of rich foliage, pollinator appeal, and classic clematis charm, it's a perfect choice for gardeners seeking a vine that's both effortless and unforgettable.

    • Prefers well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter.
    • Appreciates a cool root zone — consider mulch or companion plantings.

  • Irrigation Needs:

  • Feeding & Nutrients:
    • Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring.
    • Supplement with compost or organic matter annually to support vigorous growth.
    • Avoid excessive nitrogen, which may reduce flowering.

  • Pruning & Maintenance:
    • Minimal pruning needed; prune only lightly after flowering if reshaping is desired.

    • Provide sturdy support such as a trellis, arbor, or fence for climbing.
