    Not sure what yours is but somebody out there will know. A thread for clematis blooms is a great idea, as you say, many of us have at least one. This a picture of my fifteen year old montana reubans. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Lovely, all of them! and all the different colours too! Just love your "covered arch" Paladin.

    Do you all feed your clematis with a special fertilizer every year? I bought some last year so perhaps that is why we now have luck with our's making it through the winter and blooming again this year.
