Clematis

Hi, I have this clematis but I can’t remember the name of it. Does anybody have any ideas as to what it could be? If I hear the name I’d know it! 
Thanks in advance.

    It reminds me of Nelly Moser, but it could well be something else there are so many varieties.
    You could have a trawl through the Taylors site while your waiting for other ideas

    They have a huge selection

  • Thank you! I did have a brief look on there earlier but I couldn’t find it and although it looks like Nelly Moser I don’t remember that being the name of this one but perhaps it is!

    I don’t think so it’s more of a purple/ pink and some are very pale blue to white in colour. It does look closest to Nelly Moser but i remember liking the name of it, just wish I could remember 🙈

    Well use that website to search for more with that colour way and see if you can find it.  It's an academic site, not commercial, so lists far more than a nursery would.

    I’ve gone through every name in the alphabet of that colour so perhaps the nursery I bought it from had the wrong label on it! Thanks for your help anyway! ☺️ I think it must be the Nelly Moser. My parents have ‘Fireworks’ so I know it’s not that as theirs is a really vibrant purple with bright pink.
