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.

White Bleeding Hearts
It seems like this variety of Bleeding Heart is seen less often than the pinkish version.
Squiggly’s*
*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! 🙂 )
Yellows and Reds
Yellows and reds seem to dominate the images today, on Mother’s Day. A nice gesture to a mother would be a good thing to consider today. My mom wanted a ride to the local hardware/garden store today so she was easy to please. She now has a new wine barrel to replace an old one to plant in. There was an unadvertised sale on this item. She would have jumped for joy, but I think her jumping days are behind her.
