I have only had them for slightly over a year now and they are doing great- their growth is wonderful, and they are flowering beyond expectation- I believe the first bloom was about a week and a half ago now I have dozens. Last year, LATE into the year (Thanksgiving I think), there was one flower perfectly holding on for dear life. It was amazing. |

She is doing great in both locations, and I find her to be an easy and simply beautiful clematis. A definite favorite! |
