I've got a spot beside my house (east side) with a trellis and I'm looking for a clematis to grow there. Know of any large flowered clematis that will do well in shade with morning sun? My husband would prefer it if it could be pruned low each fall, since he is concerned about it damaging our house. Thank you!
