Thanks Pril for the great information.

I had thought that I would be better off with the chair as a trellis with one that did not need pruning back. I guess that would be class I or II.

I ordered 3 clematis from Garden Crossings in MI ... it got rave reviews at the Garden Watch Dog.

Got

Nelly Moser for my shaded area.

The President ... just because I like large flowers, not sure where it will go, but have lots of possabilities.

and
Clematis 'Hania' (maybe for the chair)
