Raymond Evison is a delight on the tape and on radio, where I've heard him speak several times. The idea of clems in hanging baskets is so interesting.

Clematis do not have to grow to 18' for me to enjoy them as this Jackmanii has done several times. This photo was taken on May 25th, 2006 (before a storm ripped off the top of the trellis) and by July had crossed over the top of the copper trellis, down the backside of it and across the three compost bins behind it.
