Clematis chrysocoma
Gold wool clematis is a flowering climbing vine from southern China, known for its yellow woolly down on young shoots, leaves and flower stalks. It is grown mainly for its showy, bell-shaped flowers and benefits from a cool root run with its top in sun.
Clematis chrysocoma, the gold wool clematis, is a flowering vine of the genus Clematis. It has showy flowers like many members of that genus, but it also has a yellow down covering its young branches, leaves, and flower stalks. It is endemic to southern China (W Guizhou, W Sichuan, Yunnan).
Clematis armandii bears clusters of long-stalked 2-inch (51 mm) pinkish white flowers twice each year. It grows to 6–8 feet (1.8–2.4 m) high and tolerates shade well compared to other varieties of clematis. It is native to western China; in the US it grows best in American Horticultural Society zones 9 to 6, which are generally found in the southern US.
