While this Asian sweet autumn clematis is listed as invasive in several parts of the country, it is not in Connecticut * I planted this in 2012 at the east side of the deck where the kiwi vine had been. By September 2013 it had grown into a beautifully draped vine that graced the railing of the deck. It was just beautiful and smelled lovely. 9/1/13 I'm not sure why I took out the kiwi vine; it was doing well, but it was the female, and I wanted to have the male with its stronger tipped coloring. I took out the kiwi, then decided to replant the area with this sweet autumn clematis. Sweet autumn clematis can get rambunctious, so we'll see how this works out. I may need to do a lot of pruning and trimming I think. 9/20/12, first planted. What a heady, spicy, scent as I walk out onto the deck in late August and September. I worry that this vine may get too big to manage, but so far it is shapely and drapes just beautifully over the deck railing. The profusion of flowers is incredible. 8/26/14 9/3/14 It's best season is of course when it blooms so profusely, but before then, all summer, it is very green and leafy. I cut it to the ground in spring, and this is what the foliage looked like in 2015 by 4th of July. 7/3/15 And by August it was a beautiful full screen draped over the railing. 8/8/15 And then, at Labor Day, it comes into spicy, wonderful bloom. 9/5/15 In 2016 we are going to have the deck rebuilt, and that railing will come down and be replaced. That's going to affect this plant for the season, but there is no question it will still thrive. * Is Sweet Autumn Clematis Invasive Here? The Connecticut Invasive Plant Working Group, says Sweet Autumn Clematis (Clematis terniflora or Clematis paniculata) is not on Connecticut's list of invasive plants. To be listed as either potentially invasive or invasive in Connecticut, a non-native plant must meet a set of scientific criteria (see http://www.hort.uconn.edu/cipwg/criteria.html).
