Its difficult to tell I find the colours on photos don't always come out true ,I have two labels for Polish Spirit which shows it to be more of a plum colour but then labels can't be trusted !

Maybe/Probably agree with Ck!

Polish Spirit is quite blue/violet, not plum. This looks very like it, and it flowers late and goes on for ages. A beautiful var. and a real boon for the late garden. :)

Thanks for that Karen my labels are obviously not showing their true colours in fact it has helped clear up a mystery as I have a Clematis in flower at the moment which looks very much like this one I didn't know what it was as it didn't fit in with my labels if it still has good flowers on tomorrow after this rain I will take a photo for your ID...

:)) I don't always know, but I can spot one I've grown myself. Do love my clematis. Sadly, not many of mine have done anything this year. The cold wasn't good for them.
