A very lovely surprise to greet you at the mailbox. I have a clematis growing on my mailbox too, but it is looking rather crispy. I'm debating whether to cut it back as I know some are supposed to be cut back and others aren't.
I have never seen them bloom so late, but your in a different climate. I love these. When I moved I had to leave my precious "Nelly Moser" behind. I do plan to plant some new ones.
She's very flamboyant dear Mary - has the post man fallen in love with her too!!! Love the colour and the markings - so striking. She's only leaving you a for a little while and coming over to my side of the world to share her beauty - a nice way to think of it don't you think dear? love and hugs Shane

It is so pretty. Love, love the color.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had any clematis for quite awhile.
Hope you had a delightful weekend.
