I planted this late last year. It said on it’s label it would flower Jan/Feb.

I had a look at it today and there are little tiny buds on it. Fantastic. I shall wait for them to come out properly then I can take it’s photo.

That's so exciting for you.
Looks like it is going to do what it says "on the tin" Lol.
What colour petals ?
I looked on internet and it says pale green, almost white ?

Dee and Angie ~

My winter flowering clematis took several years to really get going, so don't be disheartened if they have no flowers or few flowers in early years.

Hi everyone, thank you for comments, I am looking forward to seeing if it continues on into flowers.

Yes it should have pale green/white flowers, the little buds are glowing white at the moment. It's name Lunar lass suggest moon like.

The leaves are really tiny, it does not look like a clematis plant.
