Clematis ’Zo25005’
(GLORIOUS® CLOUD)
by Van Zoest
Clematis GLORIOUS® CLOUD Wins GREEN RETAIL AWARD – Visitors’ Favourite
Congratulations, J. van Zoest! Clematis ‘Zo25005’ (GLORIOUS® CLOUD) has won a GREEN RETAIL AWARD.
GLORIOUS® CLOUD is a striking new addition to the Viticella group. Its large flowers, measuring 8 to 10 cm, immediately catch the eye due to the strong contrast between the dark outer edges of the petals and the nearly white center.
With abundant and long-lasting blooms from June through September, a height of approximately three meters, and strong resistance to wilt disease, GLORIOUS® CLOUD combines visual appeal with excellent garden performance.
A wonderful honor for J. van Zoest and a special new addition to the GLORIOUS® series. Congratulations!
