Three years ago i brought a Clematis "Royalty"i had the perfect spot for it ,planted it just as it said on the lable,it grew about 18 inches then die back ..no flowers.The next year i fed it ,put stones around the base to keep the roots cool but the same thing happened…no flowers.This spring i thought s-d it so i carefuly dug it up and put in another PERFECT place ..thinking if it dies it dies
Then this year it blooms,It must have known what i was thinking!!
