Clematis fusca

I am getting a first-rate education in the wide world of clematis from my visits to Barry’s garden. So far, I seem to lean towards the bell-shaped flowers and this may be my very favourite yet. It’s velvety!

  1. Wow, that is beautiful!

    You amaze me that you can have a new pic everyday…and they are all really good photos. Have to ask, do you take 50 or 100 photos a day and store up for a dry spell?

    Must look for this one in the nurseries. Just planted my first clematis this year…trying to hold off, seeing if this one survives.

  2. Liane: Thank you. I do take a lot of photos but how many depends on the day.

    During the growing season I generally post them as I go or as I get the film developed and scanned. So most photos are in-sync with what’s blooming right now.

    In the winter I tend to bring out photos taken during the previous growing season.
