Hi Penny. Believe these are from the Raymond Evison Patio Collection.

Three were introduced last year, and three more this year.

I received one (Picardy) for Mother's Day last year and I love it.

I'm hoping to buy the newly introduced Bourbon this year (if my children haven't taken the hint).

Check out my recent post titled Raymond Evison Patio Clematis gone wild... Also, do a search on Cezzane...and maybe one on Raymond Evison....I know there have been several posts on these Clematis.

Wish I could figure out how to post pictures on the Forum. Last year my Picardy was spectacular and is even better this year (so far)

Elaine

Oops...think the correct spelling is Cezanne, another in the Evison patio collection. You might also search this forum for Picardy.

Elaine, many of us enjoy looking at others photos. Here's a link that will show you step by step how to post a picture in this forum: Pooh Bear's Tinypic Tutorial.

May I break in and ask if there is an online nursery offering these? I have seen a few here and there but I always think I'll go back and get them and then POOF they are snapped up/gone.

Pleased to hear.

Bob, Thanks for the link for posting pictures. Will check it out and hopefully post a few.

Greenaphid.... Haven't checked online, but I was at Lowe's yesterday, and they were just unloading a large batch of Cezannes. They were on a very tall rack, and I couldn't see if they were all Cezannes. From what I could see, they were very nice -- lots of stems and buds.

The truck was still being unloaded, so they may have the others as well. I did see the price...$24.95. Which is quite a bit less than my kids paid for my Picardy last year at an upscale garden center.

Of course, in my opinion, it was worth every penny they paid and it certainly is a gift that just keeps on giving..

I got mine at Lowes last year for bout $17 or $18.

I got a Cezanne at Lowe's last year too. Transplanted it right away into a large pot and it didn't stop blooming until early December! Pruned it back early this year, and it is going gangbusters. I love this series. I'd also like to find the Bourbon too. So far, I haven't seen them in my area. Everybody has Cezanne including Longs Drugs, but I've not found Bourbon yet.

Oh this is torture...my nearest lowes doesn't have any clematis...let alone longs drugs! I just went to 3 nurseries today and an upscale grocery store and NADA.

Greenaphid..... Hines Vines has a dealer locator on their website. When I have checked it for my area, they do not show every single location, but you may have some luck checking it for your area. Just check for Raymond Evison Patio Collection.

Good luck in your search.

Here is a link that might be useful: Hines Vines

SCORE! Went further afield to another lowes and low and behold...Picardy, Cezanne, Evi-something, and Harlow Carr jumped into the basket. I don't feel guilty...yet.

Thank you for the heads up regarding Hines, Elaine.

Woo Hoo! Sounds to me like a wonderful shopping spree!

Congratulations!

From someone who learned the hard way.........don't transplant to ceramic containers or any that retain heat.

Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.
