Thanks for the informative site, Lee. The photo of that greenhouse interior and thousands of clematises was inspiring. I agree that colors were way off on many - The President and Prince Philip were definitely not accurate.

Marcia - the clem's are great in arrangements though I prefer just a few clem's and not other flowers to detract from their beauty.

Marcia and Marilyn - loads of buds here but they are struggling to open. With our current cold and nasty weather I think it will take a day or two of sunshine and warmth to get them to open. Pictured are the buds on Liberation.

Marie - yes, trim it back and give it the Epsom Salt drink. Did you ever find the manure?
