Clematis: Clematis in shrubs, 1 by pirl

You've done an excellent job of hiding it in the shrubs.

I do love the look of clem's and large rocks. The clem's are so soft looking and the rocks are a great counterpoint

The pitcheri I mentioned earlier was planted next to a boxwood. Never again. It really limited the root growth. In the last two weeks I cut back both boxwoods and today we managed to get one out and to the dump. Just one to go. Hard physical work is good to release the anguish on the day after a Rainbow Bridge event that broke out hearts.

Here's the now late Harry (next to the boxwood we removed today) watching as Jack planted the windowboxes a few years ago. He never even tried to run away. Guess he knew how good life was here. He'd have been 15 on June 1st.

He loved sitting on the bench at the kitchen window watching people, snow plows or trying to attack the UPS guy.

Most of all he loved his rides with Jack.
