It is my favorite micro-scene, what I see when at the kitchen sink. The tripod was made just for Ballerina, which is now almost done with bloom. Several years back, I put flower carpet on it, as I didn't have the heart to get rid of it. This spring, I took the jackmanii clematis and headed some of it over, too. This clematis blooms from spring to late summer. These all grow in a spot between two houses and only get midday sun.

Ballerina when in early bloom. It is mostly done blooming when the above photos were taken today.
