Clematis 'Kitty' is part of the Boulevard series which is known for being compact and a great patio planter selection. Boulevard 'Kitty' is a near-white clematis with heavily overlapped petals and burgundy-tipped anthers.

'Kitty', a free flowering clematis blooms in June-July and again later in the summer. Hardy in zones 4-9, Boulevard 'Kitty' prefers part shade locations, but can handle filtered shade.
