Clematis 'Jaan'

Medium to large, light violet flowers with dark purple anthers on light purple filaments. Fruit heads persistent. Named after Uno Kivistik's younger brother (b.1946). Our limited experience of this cultivar (a visit to the Kivistiks in 2005) suggests to us that the colour is considerably redder seen in full sun (see first photo).
