I am new to clematis...but for those of you that are familiar with it...wouldn't the montana varieties be good for this use, or is it too much sun? I understand it is evergreen and grows 20-30 feet and can take over an area. I just got the Snowdrift variety...I also just bought a Helsinborg, which I read is good for covering the bare lower stems of c. montana varieties...the Helsinborg is dark purple and the Snowdrift is white, which I think will look very pretty together...
