betra -- thanks for posting this. I was just getting ready to post my own request to help id a clematis that I have. I have no idea when it was planted or anything else since it was here when I bought my house almost 2 years ago. I think from what I've seen in your thread I have the same one. Hopefully you or revclaus can tell me if the center on this one is the dark red/purple because it's a very young bloom. I have one larger flower that does not have this color center and it looks like your picture and the one on the Raymond Evision website. From reading the description on the link she provided mine has the same characteristics as far as height, etc. Unfortunately mine has only a couple of flowers on it right now, but earlier in the season it was covered with these georgous flowers.
