Like BL's mine is past it's best, drought and then lashings of rain, trying to have a good hack at things today and lots of dead heading hoping we might get a mini revival. Even the poor dahlias which were lovely last year look a bit sad.

Clematis has been there for about 10 years, gives me no problems, just cut it down to the ground in Spring, and a hand full of fertiliser each year. It flowers for 3 months and the seed heads look good as well.

I am not sure if you meant my pictures, but if you did:
Deep pink is Lychnis coronaria.
Blue with fluffy seed heads is a herbaceous clematis C. integrifolia.

Lovely pics punkdoc, I counted about 18 different flowers in the first pic.
I can send seeds of those Lychnis Susan, once you have them they self seed everywhere. Easy to germinate in the Spring.
