I have a black thumb when it comes to clematis. I have made numerous attempts to grow this vine over the past few years. Not sure what it is this plant needs that I seem to lack, but some gardeners have great luck, such as these examples show.
Wisteria-envy! I would love to have a large, covered porch draped with purple wisteria. Even the vines are wonderful the way they wrap around everything, including themselves.
*A non-botanical term to describe the little feeler-like do-widgets in the center of the flower. ( Three hyphenations in one sentence- a new, personal best! 🙂 )
