Explore the World of Clematis

Clematis, with roots in ancient gardens, derives its name from the Greek word 'Klema', meaning vine or tendril. Its charming presence has earned it the title of 'Queen of Climbing Plants', revered just as much as roses, which are known as the 'King'. It signifies beauty and joy, making it a timeless favorite in many gardens.
