FUNYELLA® YELLOW CLEMATIS (GROUP1)


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.

Funyella® Clematis is part of Group 1 and its ideal spot 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.

Clematis Groups:
Clematis Group 1 (Early-flowering) - These varieties bloom on old wood (growth from the previous year) in early spring. They generally require no routine pruning; if they become too large or untidy, simply trim them back immediately after they finish flowering.

Clematis Group 2 (Large-flowered hybrids) - These typically produce a flush of blooms in early summer on old wood and often a second, lighter flush on new growth later in the season. Prune them lightly in early spring by removing dead or weak stems, cutting back to the highest pair of healthy buds, and optionally trimming again after the first bloom to encourage re-flowering.

Clematis Group 3 (Late-flowering) - These bloom on new wood (growth produced during the current season) in late summer or fall. They are the most forgiving to prune; cut them back hard in late winter or early spring, typically to about 6–12 inches above the ground, to encourage vigorous new growth and abundant blooms.




Planting Tips

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.
