'Miss Bateman' is a compact, free-flowering, early, large-flowered clematis. The rounded, single white flowers are tinged slightly with pink, creating a subdued pastel shade. They are 9cm (3in) across with red at the centre. The main flush appears in late spring to early summer and is often followed by a second show of blooms in late summer to early autumn. To prune, remove any dead or weak stems in late winter or early spring and cut remaining stems back to the highest pair of strong-growing buds. To encourage blooms to cover the whole plant, train the stems so that they are evenly spaced on their support. As new growth appears in mid spring, train this to fill any gaps.
