Git a few more blooms to show you....they keep trickling in...

1--Again--my Clematis "Protea". Looks like the blooms could not wait
for the vines to climb higher before blooming. Always LOVE the odd assortment
of bloom characteristics every year ans the amazing, pale lavender color.

2--Closer look at a couple blooms of it.

3--This is the only stem of my "Multi Blue" Clematis that is struggling to survive
in just one, thin stem. They are so fragile--they break.
I need to fence in the frail stem at the base. So far--I have just these 2 blooms.

4--It used to be so awesome! Look! --2009.

Two more to bloom---The "Piilu" Estonian Clematis and the one with the most
impact--"lady Betty Balfour"...soon to come....will post when they open..
