    I think you need @nutcutlet or @Borderline cos they're good on shrubs and stuff.

    It's a Clematis. possibly heracleifolia or maybe x jouiniana

  • Thanks, I will look those up.  I never would have guessed clematis!

    I did wonder but have only seen those in online catalogues, never on sale in the flesh.
    These links should help identify it or you can search teh site for more examples.

    If petals are reflexed, it could be Clematis New Love, shrub forming, supposedly scented but my nose must have been blocked in all the time I had them !!!!

    New Love is a cultivar of heracleifolia I don't think you could ID that from that photo
