Hello all!!

I went to my friend's garden today, and got some pics of her clematis. Most of it was just finished blooming, some were long over blooming, but there were a few buds yet to bloom, so I imagine it isn't blooming much because there's so much PLANT!

I tried to span the petals on one of the spent blooms. I hope you can get a good idea of it, and can help me decide if I can cut it way back, or only the new growth, to retrain it.
