Clematis 'Dorothy Walton' has the most beautiful large mauve coloured flowers with a slightly darker bar. The flowers grow in a stunning star shape. Clematis 'Dorothy Walton' also has long tapering tepals with white filaments and purple violet anthers. The flowers then turn into reddish brown stamens in late summer.
