Does clematis bloom more than once, or does it keep reblooming?

It depends on the clematis Hon.


Most of the older varieties, like Jackmaniii and Will Goodwin, will have a relatively long bloom time, but bloom only once a year. Same goes for the paniculata type ("Sweet Autumn"). But some of the newer hybrids have more than one bloom cycle a year.


One that I have is "Gypsy Queen"...it has lovely deep-purple flowers like Jackmanii, but blooms up to THREE seperate times a year! Go to a local nursery where the employees actually know about the plants they sell (NOT WAl-Mart or Home Depot) and tell them you want a repeat-bloomer clematis.

Does clematis bloom more than once, or does it keep reblooming?
Yeah it keeps blooming and will even come back next year.
Reply:It blooms once a season, but is a perennial and will come back every year.
