Clematis Josephine
« on: May 23, 2011, 18:51:21 »
This is our first attempt at growing and pruning a clematis. We followed the instructions for pruning which seemed quite severe and we were worried we had cut back too much. As you can see it turned out beautiful. We are very pleased.

Spectacular! Such huge blossoms, too.

Only just seen this but wanted to say how beautiful the flowers are/were.   I suppose it's finished now?

It still has flowers although they have faded now. Hope it will be as good next year.
