My first clematis of the season, Fragrant Spring, is starting to bloom. It is growing up a trellis on the side of the children's fort in the backyard. I purchased it from my favorite clematis nursery, Chalk Hill Clematis, which unfortunately has now closed. If anyone has any recommended clematis nurseries, let me know.

Beautiful and especially nice if it is fragrant too.
Take Care/ Tyra
So Sweet! I love the clematis that look like dogwood.
What a pretty montana! For fabulous clematis with a 1-gallon pot's worth of roots, check out silverstarvinery.com. Debbie Fischer is the knowledgable and very friendly owner.
It looks so beautiful against the blue.
