  That shows promise, not a clematis I know.

  Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

  It is growing through an early flowering rosa pimpinellifolia in the front garden here, after the rose finishes the clematis kicks in, flowers through until September, just chop the old stems off in mid-February, never water or feed it, a REAL clematis.  It will grow anywhere, and the flowers are scented.

  Don't we all just get sooooooooooooo excited when we see new shoots appear, no matter how many decades we've been gardening.?

  Devon.

  Looks lovely. Bonus that it is scented.

  I can understand the 2nd picture being very exciting.  Love a perfumed clematis.

  I sell this plant or can supply seeds, but this is not a selling site, sorry.
