A lot of the clematis descriptions claiming a clematis is blue usually ends up looking purple. Last year I purchased HF Young and it turned out to be more purple. I also purchased Fujisumume which is a beautiful color and comes very close to blue. If Kiri Te Kanawa looks like purple instead of blue, I'll probably end up purchasing Blue Light or Belle of Woking. Hoping some of you grow this flower and will let me know.
