Wow! She's doing good. Mine is about 3 years old now and not half as bushy or blooming as that! Good job!

Mine is five years old and not half as bushy nor blooming as that.

I plunked too many Clematis into holes chopped in clay with tree roots instead of carving out big holes using a barrier against the roots and back filling with compost. Those who were chopped in have struggled along barely alive and those who got great big holes or were in beds that were completely tilled and amended did great.

Wow. I think I'm in love.

Look at that, it's beautiful. Mine is hardly leafed out at all! Maybe mine gets too much shade.

Josephine is in the tree too. I missed it at first, and bless goodness she made it up the tree!

I got her from Brushwood in 2008, and she is in almost full shade in summer, but winter and early spring she in full or dappled sun. I love this clematis, and she has at least five separate vines.
