Protected Series: FUNYELLA
Zone: 4FUNYELLA® YELLOW CLEMATIS
Clematis 'Funyella' is a standout selection from the Atragene group, beloved for its ability to bring a fresh, refined aesthetic to the early-season landscape. It produces beautiful, nodding, bell-shaped flowers with delicate, pleated petals in a soft, luminous violet-blue that perfectly complements its elegant, fern-like foliage. Unlike many other Clematis varieties, 'Funyella' offers the distinct advantage of being a reliable rebloomer, providing a primary flush of flowers in mid-spring followed by intermittent blooms throughout the summer. Its compact habit and graceful, trailing nature make it exceptionally versatile, allowing it to easily climb trellises or act as a sophisticated groundcover in rock gardens and containers.
The ideal spot for 'Funyella' is one that provides full sun to partial shade for its "head," while ensuring the root zone ("feet") is kept cool, moist, and shaded by mulch or low-growing companion plants. Pruning is largely unnecessary for this variety, as it blooms on old wood; if light shaping or the removal of dead wood is needed, perform this only immediately after the first spring bloom cycle is complete to ensure you do not disrupt the following season's buds.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: This variety of Clematis falls in Group 1. Plant with the crown (base of the stem) 2-3 inches deep in well-draining, nutrient-rich soil. Mulch well to keep the root zone cool. Pruning: Because this cultivar blooms on old wood, it requires very little maintenance. Pruning should generally be avoided; if you need to tidy the plant or control its size, do so immediately after the bloom cycle is complete in late spring. Avoid pruning in late winter or early spring, as this will remove the upcoming season's flower buds.
