Clematis Ravel (Clematis 'Ravel') is a gracefully beautiful and softly colored large-flowered clematis variety prized for its delicate, luminous lilac-blue blooms — medium to large flowers with broad, gently rounded petals in a soft, cool lilac-blue tone with a subtle violet undertone and a contrasting central cluster of creamy yellow stamens that create a light, airy, and harmoniously refined color combination of exceptional charm. Named in honor of the celebrated French composer Maurice Ravel, this elegantly musical variety brings a lyrical, flowing quality to any garden structure — its soft lilac-blue blooms combining beautifully with warm roses and pinks, cool whites and silvers, and deep purples for a layered, romantic garden effect that feels as effortlessly composed as the music that inspired its name. A reliable and free-flowering repeat bloomer, Ravel produces its first generous flush of soft lilac-blue flowers in late spring to early summer, followed by a second abundant flush in late summer and fall — delivering months of delicate, refined color to fences, trellises, pergolas, and garden structures. Plants arrive in 2 inch starter pots, well-rooted and ready to establish in your garden.
