First, I want to say hello to everyone, I haven't posted in several weeks, and had a lot of catching up to do. All of the pictures are lovely, ane Etelka, I love the way your garden has matured.

Hello to all of the new folks that I haven't interacted with before, and a belated welcome to the clematis forum. Arlene, it's been forever, and I hope all is well with you!

The garden here is doing well, we've had a lot of rain and some flooding, which did damage some of my plants, but not the clematis. They are loving our cooler summer, and the free water they've been getting. I also have clematis blooming now that were done blooming by this time last year.

Here is Durandii from today, it's 2nd round of blooms, and Niobe is peeking through the variegated hydrangea. The 3rd and 4th pictures are of my noid, which I pretty sure is viticella Rubra, after looking at a ton of pictures on the internet. It's blooming a lot later than it did last year.
