Please Identify this Clematis

This one was purchased at Lowes on the clearance rack. Of course, the tag didn't match the actual blooms. I really like the color. I would just like to know which Clematis it is. Any ideas?

Not a clue here but hopefully someone will recognize it. Lovely soft color.

Whatever it is seems to bloom on new growth like Rosemoor. I lucked up with this one.

It's nice to get lucky and end up with a splendid clematis like yours is.

Many years ago I bought a clem at and end of the year clearance for $2.99. It had a lavender flower on the cardboard box and I never realized it had faded from being in the sun for months. The name was wrong and I ended up with Liberation, the luckiest mistake in clem's I ever made!

There have been no clems for sale at all at Lowes for many years.I am jealous! Most of the ones sold at nurseries are only Henrii, Ramona and Jackmannii

It must be 15 years or more since I got that one on sale but Walmart used to have sales on the tiniest pots of clematises and I must have bought a dozen there. Haven't seen good sales anywhere and usually it is the common ones like Jackmanii and others that are available, not the newer ones.

We are doing our best to get more people addicted to collecting! Maybe there will be more varieties in the future.

It's our job! Didn't you get the notice telling you?

There are plenty of cultivars but I'd find more places for them, I'm sure, if I could get gallon sized plants for $5.00 - LOL!

Yes.. the price/ size x cultivar equation is important.
