I had a "henryi", but it died :-( That comes close. As does
"The President", which is an extreme purple.

I once had a lonicera henryi which was the most boring plant i have ever
owned, no fragrance and horrible small brown colour flowers.

Hope it wasn't named after the same plant breeder as the clematis!

I have now decided on 3!! Henryi and Marie bosselot as mentioned to
me by Charlie and Artic White by Sacha. I will Google on suppliers
round here to see if I can get them otherwise I will order them online
from England.

Thanks to everyone for suggestions.

I think Marie Boisselot may be known also as Madame Le Coultre but Charlie
will know for sure.

Tis the same clematis and the same person marie married a Le Coutre!
