Magazine (15 Jan 1876) Page(s) 73. The New Plants of 1875. ... Of the shrubby series we have Mr. Jackman's Clematis alba magna gained without doubt the finest of all white-blossomed varieties of this noble and popular climber, the sepals being so broad that any two meet together across the intervening one, and thus form a more solid-looking than we get in the case of any other variety.

Jackman, sans aucun doute, la plus belle de toutes les variétés à fleurs blanches de cette noble et populaire liane ; ses sépales sont si larges qu'ils se recouvrent mutuellement pour former la fleur la plus solide de ce genre.
Magazine (29 May 1875) Page(s) 684. Includes photo(s). MESSRS. JACKMAN'S CLEMATISES. Messrs. Jackman & Son's popular exhibition at Regent's Park has now been brought to a close, and we may fittingly call attention at its termination to some of the charming novelties which it has been the means of introducing to our notice. [...] One of the finest novelties, however, was alba magna, of which we give a woodcut representation (fig. 140). This has the leaves either simple and cordate or ternate with ovate leaflets, and woolly; and six to eight-sepaled flowers, the sepals being exceptionally broad, fully 3 inches across, roundish ovate in outline, apiculate, necessarily very much overlapped; the flowers are quite 8 inches across, and of a pure white, without a dash of the purple tint which so often soils the purity of these white flowers; the anthers are purplish brown, and the buds woolly and erect. It appears to us to be the finest of all the whites yet raised, and the most perfect flower, as regards shape, which has yet been obtained.
