Quoting: Retirement is a blessing for gardeners!

Amen to that Arlene. Oh, Arlene, I love that corner of your garden. I'll need to show DH that for inspiration as we work to revise our garden setting this year. Marie, sounds as if you're well on your way of recovery. Be active, but do not over work yourself. Listen to your body ... it works best that away. John, thanks for the compliment. We were just lucky there. There seems to be more work in the garden. The gardener's work is never done. It's a journey.

Well, I purchased a few more clematis last year. One to replace my "President" that was a no show last year for some reason. 'Francisca Marie' and 'Empress'. Although, all 3 are in the same general area, but only Empress is leafing out like no tomorrow, and it also shows flower buds! So I moved the other two next to 'her' and perhaps that's where I'll plant them as a group there. What say you?
