Such lovely clematis contributions, some I've not heard of before, so it's always good to know these..
@pitter-patter Your red clematis is gorgeous but I'm doubting it's 'Niobe'.. which is a more velvety red and I've not seen those white markings... do you think you might mean 'Nubia' instead? it looks more like 'Nubia' to me.. which is a short clematis and won't get very tall..
You’re probably right, @Marlorena. It would be very funny because I keep having to correct myself from saying Nubia when I refer to it! In my plant record it says Niobe. I might have to look for the label.
Here it is last year, a bit taller, in case it helps.
I have to agree, it looks the same. I shall call it Nubia from now on (good luck to me, the names are so similar!). Thank you, @Marlorena and @purplerallim. I shall not have ‘hight’ expectations from it anymore.

hmm.. I still think that's 'Nubia'.. if @Marran is looking in, perhaps they could help out here?..
