We are hoping to plant two clematises (clemati?) in brightly colored pots in front of our gate, and encourage them to grow up & over our trellis. Perhaps we will stick a few annuals in the pots with the clematis for some additional summer color. The picture of where the pots will go is attached. I am a bit overwhelmed by looking through all of the different clematis varieties, and hope that someone might be able to give some suggestions on what we might use.

Musts Haves:
- Good for Zone 7B (pacific northwest)
- Does well in pots
- Grows 8+ feet
- Will take full sun
- Blooms compliment dark red house w/ cream trim

Would likes:
- Fragrant
- Rebloomer

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you are able to provide!
