Clematis Bijou

Gorgeous colour!

Love the name of this Clematis is it French originated? What a stunning
colour.....bet you are proud of this one!!

its name suggests that it is a miniture type. Is it K?

Yes, its one of the evison collection that hugs the ground and is very floriferous.

Raymond Evison...is he not channel islands?....so that could be the reason for the french influence freesiaperson! Well spotted.

Would I be right in assuming you love clematis ? A wonderful collection........

OOH! I like this one very much. :-)

Yes, I do love them. I think, for me it's the symmetry of the flower, the beauty of the centre of it and of course the variety of the colours and forms. I like plants that flower for a long time and many clems will go all summer long. I like all the plants that belong to the ranunculus genus - the hellebores are another group in the family and I love them too. Pulsatilla is another favourite! I only recently discovered that many of my favourite plants, including Thalictrum are part of this genus - I was really tickled by that!
