Positive	Biker1	On Apr 20, 2008, Biker1 from McLean, VA (Zone 7a) wrote: I planted Clematis Armandii 'Apple Blossom' last summer on an arbor over a gate. It wintered over very well and just bloomed for the first time. Wow! It is now on my favorite plants list. The buds look like little pink pearls. Then they open into a profusion of light pink flowers about 1.5 inches across. The fragrance is lovely. The effect is delicate and beautiful. And it is evergreen! What a great plant.

With little to no care the plant flourished even in the pot. Now that is it planted, it has quite a few blooms that have a sweet fragance, like a Gardenia.
