Clematis 'Piilu'

Very nice....love the edging....

It's supposed to have double flowers the first time, then single in September. Double? Hmmm...oh well, I still like it! :-)

I think mine had doubles a couple of years later (not sure tho'), and I was very surprised because I didnt know :)

It's lovely Spritz....I'm not fond of the striped ones, but this one is gorgeous. Used to grow it at the old garden...should get it again, it's like raspberry foule! :D

Oh dear, K, have you got space? :-O

Always find a space, when you grow upwards lol...:o))))

That's right Crissue! :)

Ooops!! I'm about to get the blame for Karen spending more money! (heehee)

I am being a bit careful right now....I seem to have 'blown' the bank balance lately!

Well, if you will keep going on holiday, what do you expect? Lol.

Did we go on holiday this year? That seems like years ago now! :D

We haven't had a holiday for three years now. It's about time we had one, but I want to feel well enough to get the most out of it.

We grow this one I do like the shading......

Holidays are over-rated in my experience. If we had good weather we would never go anywhere....it would be beautiful here if the weather were good.....sigh!

'IF' the weather were good! My garden is being smashed to pieces at the moment...and there's nothing I can do about it. :-((((( <HUGE sigh!>

I know, I've been thinking about you all day Spritz, on and off. We've got off lightly this time ....so far! It's just like any average November day here today.....as usual! lol xx

I went and tied the Robinia hispida onto its cane a bit higher up, as I know they can be a bit brittle, and it was swaying about crazily! :-O

Yes, I had a birch swaying around this morning, and my Rosa 'Benjamin Britten', so they both had to be staked and tied in my pjs!

Lots of horizontal plants out there but the good news is that the wind has died down this morning. :-)

Thank goodness. Lets hope it doesn't turn around and come back as they sometimes do swirling around our little Island. Those poor welsh holiday makers eh? It must have been terrible in your parts. Not too bad here today but I think we are due to get the tail end of the rain storms tomorrow.

Good luck Karen, never known a Summer as bad as this......

Nor me, and there's more to come. :-(
