    This is one that is draping itself through my Acer Brilliantissimum in the early stages of flowering, it turned the whole tree white with blossom in the end, and the scent was really heavy and far reaching.........brilliant!!

          I'm a Clematis lover and you can never have enough of them in my opinion. I've also got the Armandii varieties of Apple Blossom and Snowdrift.........but I like Armandii the best.:love30::dunno::snorky:

                Fed everything with blood, fish and bone to hopefully kick start some meaningful growth - - the compost again this year seems devoid of nutrients and nothing seems to want to get going. :gaah:

                  I have one clematis that is starting to look promising after more than 5 years of trying to "save" it. I don't know what type it is. When I bought it the label had many stickers on it and no name. The last sticker said " $.50 " and it was worth every penny. It was a little twig with dried out leaves.

                  I'll take a pic when it flowers this year.

                        My Clematis Armandii is just finishing it's flowering while only the established Clematis "Miss Bateman" has decided to burst out in flower.

                          That's very pretty. Is it fragrant?

                                Just come in. Started planting the weekends purchases. Had to move a christmas box and dig out sea hollies before i could weed and plant. Most of it sorted....just a few to plant tomorrow. Still don't know where to put the pieris and got a few gaps left to fill....it's getting there though!
