About Rehderiana
From western China. This highly scented species is hard to fit into the normal clematis descriptions. The 1-2″ (2-4cm) nodding flowers open yellow then turn the color of parchment and hang in clusters to make a very showy display. If left to wander they will cover a small tree with 10-20′ (3-6m) of growth. If pruned to about 2′ (60cm) from the ground each spring, you can expect an excellent display on an 8-10′ (2.5-3m) plant. Pruning group A or C.
