Clematis Madame Edouard Andre (Clematis 'Madame Edouard Andre') is a classic and richly colored large-flowered clematis variety prized for its deeply saturated, velvety crimson-red blooms — large, broad-petaled flowers in a warm, wine-red tone with a distinctive dusty, velvety texture and a contrasting cluster of creamy yellow stamens that add warmth and definition to each striking flower. Introduced in 1893 and one of the oldest and most enduring red clematis in continuous cultivation, Madame Edouard Andre has delighted gardeners for over 130 years with its dependable performance, rich coloring, and classic garden presence. A vigorous and reliable late-season bloomer, it produces abundant flushes of deeply colored red flowers from early summer through early fall — delivering bold, warm color at a season when richly saturated garden hues are most welcome. Easy to grow, reliably hardy, and timelessly elegant, this historic variety remains one of the most recommended red clematis for gardeners of all experience levels. Plants arrive in 2 inch starter pots, well-rooted and ready to establish in your garden.
