I have given up on clematis - mine get some sort of rust that causes the leaves to turn black & wither. Don\'t know what I\'m doing wrong... Today, I was moving some of my \'rock garden\' planters under an overhang to minimize winter injury from too much water. In the process, I found an alpine pasque flower in bloom. It is Pulsatilla pratensis ssp bohemica. It usually blooms super early - mid/late March this past spring. I guess with our warm fall, he\'s completely confused and thinks it\'s spring. As you can see, he\'s an awfully hairy beast. |
