Picked one up at Rona the other day for twelve some bucks. What few blooms upon were them were richly dark colored and nicely splashed in white, if any remain might purchase another! Your plant is stunning!

Nice!

Rona?! Incredible! I don't recall seeing a Tie Dye for sale, anywhere for the past many years.

This is an incredibly pretty clematis!

Thanks lots @a2zmom_Z6_NJ. (Actually, I always find it hard to get a proper photo showing it's best....looking at the two above, the colours are washed out.)

We have had it for years. It starts very slowly each spring and is in good bloom almost always by the second week of July.

aw come on.. how about some close ups to prove the veracity of the name... thats like showing me batik iris from 10 feet away...

Maybe too many.

(even 5,6,7 years ago this forum was teeming with members....it doesn't seem like we are ever going to get that back)

Certain colors just don't photograph well unless you have an expensive 35 millimeter that you can adjust properly. I was recently talking to my son about how my red dianthus never photographs properly (he's an art director so he knows photography) and he told me that a phone camera will never certain things well.

never too many ... never...look at me.. never too many ...

Thats a lovely clematis, Rouge. I have never seen this one in person, glad you posted a close photo. Nice to see the bloom details!

Wow! Absolutely gorgeous.
