Alaina Clematis Sweetgum well-drained soil is bestAlaina Clematis (Clematis 'Alaina') Alaina Clematis is a compact flowering vine that brings the elegance of large flowered clematis to smaller gardens, patios, and entry spaces. Its soft pink blooms give vertical plantings a more romantic, finished look without requiring the size or reach of a vigorous traditional clematis. Because it stays relatively restrained, it is especially useful where space is limited but strong seasonal color still matters.
