I love the Clematis! I bought my Mom one for her birthday and it was so beautiful, for about a week, then all the blooms started dying off, she fed it a couple of time and now it's starting to bloom again. Such pretty flowers!

Hi Niki,

This Clematis was a birthday present for me too. I love that my flowers are a dark purple. Are your Moms too?

Nice captures I always thought that word clematis sounds funny heheh!

Have a tanfastic week ;-)

Hi Steve,

For me Clematis always makes me think of Hotel California by the Eagles.

Have a great week yourself!

That is my thought every time I hear the flowers name. They are really lovely...

I like flowers-not just cultivated flowers, but wildflowers also. I am always amazed at how beautiful the wildflowers are without any cultivation or care, they come up and bloom year after year.

Hi Mary,

I agree with you wholeheartedly about wildflowers. I want to toss seeds over by our pond to see if I can add to our small but pretty widlflower collection. I think most are gifts from the birds that stop to drink.
