    I love the shape of that one



    In the sticks near Peterborough
  • Yes, only grows to about 3 ft.  Ideal for a pot with a metal obelisk.

    I can do that but can't find a clematis supplier in this region but there is one elsewhere who'll do mail order.

    I really like the look of your Lord Herschell too.   Clematis envy!

    What are you going to call that? It looks like an edwardian ladies skirt.

  • I have just Registered that as clematis Sue Reade.   Sue has been the Northern Group Organiser for The British Clematis Society for many years.

    It's beautiful.   I hope Sue Reade likes it.
