2015 Clematis Blooms

I thought it might be handy to show off blooms in one place, since there is no gallery for clematis! Please feel free to add your photos here!


This here is Blue Light Clematis, in it's second year. Made it all the way to the top of it's trellis. The rabbits pruned it for me a lot it's first year so it's got 3 or 4 vines now, which are protected at the base from further pruning.

    RE: question about Wal Mart clem. They carry Mrs. N. Thompson often. You might check it out on the Hull Clematis site and see if it looks like yours. Like the deep purple with the red bar, very nice.

    Marlene, if you are talking about the picture posted at 11:59 PM, according to my ID it is a Dr. Ruppel Clematis. Very pretty. It is only a couple of years old and it has started flourishing extremely well. I might end up increasing the height of the trellis. I am looking at various options without cutting back the plant drastically. FYI, I always look for some beauty to the trellis also. I re-purpose a lot of stuff to make trellis that are an art form by itself. Example is the red antique wagon wheel trellis for my Pink champagne clematis. My wife thinks that I am crazy. And she did not like the bight red color!. LOL.

    There are a few more that are loaded with buds - Madame Baron Veillard, Jackmani, Saffire Indigo clematis etc. to name a few. I will post as soon as they put on the show. We had much less rain in the North east in the last two months. But I think, it was a stellar time for flowering plants and trees. Flowered profusely and they lasted much longer.

    Pmemarakov, glad to see you back in the forum. I always consider your clematis as benchmark for comparison.

  • 11 years ago

    At last count, I have 16 clematis in various stages of growth. Here are a few of mine:

    Pink Fantasy & Voluceau

    I know there are too many plants in such a small area but it would be hard/impossible to selectively remove one.

    There is "Still Waters" (light blue small flowers nearer the bottom), another that you can't see from this pic is "Pillu" and some unknown darker blue/purple one higher up.



  • 11 years ago

    I love seeing everyone's flowers


    Rouge, it's a gorgeous combination and I don't think it's too many at all - it's just amazing!

  • 11 years ago

    Yes, a very nice Clemie combination Rouge. It's giving me ideas :).

  • 11 years ago

    Ernest Markham, first year bloom. Didn't expect it to bloom right away!


  • 11 years ago

    My pride and joy :) sorry for the sideways photo not sure why they load that way.

  • 11 years ago

    Such beautiful clematises. Here is Galore, my first clematis, planted last October.


  • 11 years ago

    We had a poor spring but my Westerplatte seems to be doing well.

    I really like the combo fo Comtess de bouchard and Huxtable....also Asao and Blue Ice look so beautiful close up. I will be searching for these three clemis...wish me luck!

    Thank you everyone for sharing your clemi photos! All are so beautiful.... Clemis are one of my fav flowers....and most fav vine!

  • 11 years ago

    So beautiful. Mine are only 1 or 2 years old and have only very few blooms. All bought from big box stores at season end clearance so could be mislabeled.

    Fragrant Star - 1st one to bloom

    Red Cardinal still have blooms and it is growing up fast.

    Carnaby

    Fireworks

    The rest of them haven't bloomed yet and do not have any buds too.


  • 11 years ago

    Sorry got the wrong pic. Fireworks is this one

  • 11 years ago

    I know some find this plant to look 'ill' due to the streaky variegation of the flower. I do think it does look better in person than from a photo as I just can't get the coloration right.

    I have bet I have close to 20 clematis in our garden and by far "Tie Dye" was the most vigorous grower this past spring.





  • 11 years ago

    Pretty impressed with these 2nd year plants! But it seems to me they have bloomed a bit early-- they supposedly are type 3s. Warsaw Nike and Hagley Hybrid. Blooms are nearly done now, should I prune and hope for another flush in the fall? Or just let them be?

    Nelly Moser - mine looks much lighter than the one posted by Mairead....hmm....is it washed by too much sunlight?

  • 11 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    Hi Starlight, my clematis are planted on a north east facing wall, they only get morning sunlight up to 12 noon. I love your Ramona, it has a beautiful satin look.

    Here is my Jackmanii (I think, I was given this from a very old plant)

    Here it is next to a Warszawska Nike for colour confirmation
