bought 3 new clematis today!!!

15 years ago

I am sooo excited! Today I noticed that Superstore's garden center had 40% off of selected perennials, Hydrangea, Explorer roses were marked down to a mere $5, but what really excited me was the clematis for $7.97 each! Soooo, I bought Chantilly, Rhapsody, and Vivienne Beth Currie.

Now, I need your thoughts... I thought of putting Chantilly and V. B. Currie on the same wire trellis that hubby needs to build (he doesn't know that yet), and I'm not sure what to put with Rhapsody??

What are your thoughts folk? Who would look best with each other?

if you think another colour should be purchased ... let me know... LOL

I think Chantilly and Vivienne 'Beth Currie' would look very nice together. I wouldn't put Rhapsody with either one of them, but that is a personal preference.

I was thinking the very thing janetpetiole. I'm wondering what might look good with Rhapsody? I have plans to have three wire trellis, approximately 5 feet apart ... each with 2 clematis. I'm trying to make the (6) clematis it easy on the eyes as well.
Hubby will make the wire trellis, i just have to figure what dimentions would be pleasing as well as accommodate the clematis ... decisions decisions.
