This is the first year this Clematis has bloomed for me. I mistakenly pruned it in Spring last year. It is supposed to be Piilu, but doesn't look like the tag or pictures I've found online. The bars on the petals are pale green.

I still really like it, but now doubt it's Piilu.

Thanks!

Clematis on the web search for white with green stripe large flowered clematis gives 'Balerina', it might be your clematis, I have never seen this variety though. It is definitely not Piilu, which I have grown.

Here is a link that might be useful: Balerina

I believe your clematis is Miss Bateman.

On second thought I think it might be one of the Florida varieties which have a green stripe and the tight sepals. Don't think it is Miss Bateman, but more pictures would help.
