Stunning Clematis Louise1 :)

Thank you all !
It's not just ME is it ?? !!!
It really is a gorgeous flower :))

Lovely....I think it looks at its best before it's fully open. I want one !

Stunning. Now I have another Clematis to add to my list!

Philc, i do too ! :)

Oh, dear - there are so many...I'd need another garden to grow them all in - lol. This is a lovely one, Louise. No wonder you sit and gaze at it!

this really is very pretty
am still too much of a scardy cat to grow these
they just seem so delicate and would be devestated if it went wrong

eek

maybe next year when Im braver

Mookins!!!! This simply won't do! I am told that the easiest Clematis to grow is C. viticella 'Etoile Violette'.... it's in flower now, and will continue for weeks. It's a lovely dark purple one.

What can we do or say to convince you that Clematis are easy and hardy and beautiful??

oh I know they are all very beautiful spritz and would love them creeping all round my garden but I just worry.
I promise this time next year to have at least....3 different varietis going by the space i have for climbers

x x x x

We're going to come across there Mookins and force-feed you Clematis !!!!!!!

You're on, Louise. Watch out, Mookins! We're on our way! LOL.

Noooooo...Lol

Can see why its your favourite and its on my wishlist,Mookins I kept losing mine to wilt took years to get them going, well worth giving them a go...........

It's only some that suffer from wilt, there are lots these days that are fine! :-)

I bought one of these this year. It's very small and hasn't flowered yet. Thanks for showing the photos. Now I can look forward to it.

lovely...
This is the first i,ve tried to grow clematis, my 4 are all coming on great, can't wait for the first flower.

Which ones have you got, Usernut?

Dr Ruppel, Rhapsody, the President and Dorothy walton.
3 of group 2 and Dorothy walton I think is group 3.

This really is a beautiful clematis. I have had mine for about 4 years, and it has survived the heavy snowfalls we have had these last two years. Each year the stems have got stronger, and this year it has come through looking really healthy. It really is one to add to your collection.
