Some others on Memorial Day

Just a mish mash of pictures taken today while the sun was under the clouds. Haven't been able to take as many pictures this season due to other obligations.

The patio trellis overview.

First blooms on Walenburg which to me looks similar to Minuet with more red and less white in the bloom.

Very pretty!!! I hope to achieve that look 1 day!

How tall & wide is your trellis wall in the 1st pic & how many do you have planted there? It looks like 6?

I can't wait to see my Tie Dye bloom! The anthers look gold in the pics.

How long have you had Walenburg? Curious if the white comes on with the age of the bloom? I planted 1 last year & did get a chance to see some blooms at the nursery & they seemed more white in the center. I know those blooms had been open for a while by the way they looked. If your experience says no, I think I may have gotten a mislabeled plant...Minuet.

Really lovely. I guess you answered the other posters question "can you have too many clematis " ? NO would be the answer. Your pics are so nice. c

Looks nice, Miguel; I think the Proteus/Piilu combo looks good. Jeanne, Jan Fopma is quite hardy for me, so it should be no problem for you.

Your plants are looking fantastic! I must confess, I was on vacation last week and built 2 5x8 sections inspired by your structures behind your copper arbors with the 4x4,s and green vinyle fencing. Do you think I can fit 3 clematis[all viticellas] on each structure? I'll try to get some pictures up. Tracy

Thanks Miguel. It is always great to get a preview from you. I did get a few Betty Corning blooms this weekend, but most of mine are a few weeks away.

Wow! So inspiring! My Walenurg and Tie Die are still very small. Something to look forward to! Thank you for sharing, Miguel.

I just caught up with these. They are mouth watering. With the exception of Margot Koster, which is in full bloom, mine either have one or two or no blooms at this point in the season. Your pictures give me hope.
