    @Richard Hodson, what kind of pruning would it need?

    Peter and Zara Phillips are not ‘technically’ a prince and princess because they are children of the monarch’s daughter, not of her son.  Archaic maybe but that’s the way it works. The Queen offered to make them prince and princess when they were born. Princess Anne turned down the offer. Thus they are not prince/princess. That’s the way it is 😊
    The title Princess of Wales is a courtesy title afforded to the wife of the Prince of Wales. Meghan is not Princess Meghan ... she is Princess Henry of Wales (she is not a princess in her own right) ... just as the wife of John Smith should be addressed as Mrs John Smith. Again archaic but titles are archaic aren’t they 🤔
    Oh @Dovefromabove, you and your factually accurate explanations. You're sooooooooo elitist.

    even if you didn't like the plant? I'm just curious.

    There’s no point in getting things wrong is there?  And anyway, titles are elitist ... knowledge isn’t. 🙂

    A perfect example of why the House of Lords should be scrapped. Titles do not infer knowledge.

    How odd! Your line "There’s no point in getting things wrong is there?" didn't appear in the original post.
    Unfortunately some seem to delight in being wrong. Tango Faced Trump for one.

    Ah ... I discovered I’d accidentally deleted a line of my post when editing the quote, so I edited and reinstated it. You weren’t seeing things 😏 And of course I agree with you re the House of Lords. 👍

  • AnniD,  to respond to your question re pruning the Princess Meghan, the original plant that I showed the picture of is a Viorna Group, Group 3 pruning.  Hard prune February.

    Since then, it appears, that another Meghan has been introduced ( I really can't believe that the Clematis Registrar, Duncan Donald, would allow 2, there may be more yet ), this plant appears to be a Group 2 cultivar.

    Marketing to gullible consumers? Just a thought.
