    What one is this then? I moved into my house in November and this little beauty has been creeping up the trellis on the fence. Now that it has flowered I can see what colour it is. It is truly stunning. There are bout 10 unopened buds on it just waiting to open.

    Thanks,

    Gillyp :D

    Well I'm not sure what it is but I agree that it's really pretty!

    Very early for William Kennet. Ours is only just beginning to get leaves, never mind buds.

    Here is one of my clematis also with big buds ready to burst into bloom so.

    I am growing two separate clematis in containers to so they will cascade and have spilling pots in the centre with an extra splash of colour.
