That was Claire de Lune. After I planted it, I found it it can be finicky and prone to wilt. I'll have to give it a few years before I know if it's a keeper or not. I've also planted some shade lovers along the north side of my house, also just last year. Again, it will take some time to figure out if they will do well there or not. Those were Warsaw Nike, Pope John Paul II and Will Goodwin. If you go out to Chalk Hill Clematis site, they have a page of suggested clematis for a north exposure. I've never bought clematis from them but do recommend Silver Star Vinery and Brushwood.

This is Fujimusume, not a shade lover, but looking forward to seeing more of it next year. Hope it makes it through this awful winter we have going. I planted it pretty late.
