Lovely...there are so many pretty ones! How do you decide which one to choose to get???

I guess it's just whatever makes my heart skip a beat at the moment I am looking at them...

Do you tend to buy them on-line or from a nursery or store in your area?
I like your deciding factor...I thought you would give me all the requirements it has to meet for where you are planning to plant it!

I buy mine from a Friend that grows them in Washington..she has made recommendation as to what are the hardiest in the garden..also, I just tell her a color and she sends me pics or I just find some online and ask her...I have bought about 6 online and about 25 from her and the rest of my 40 I bought at walmart believe it or not..LOL..Debbie is great she sells them for $12.00 +shipping and they have the most magnificent roots...I don't like that "Sleep","
Creep" Leap" part..I buy 2 or 3 yr olds from her and go right into leaping....if you are interested let me know...here is a pic of one she sent..check out the roots!!

I love this Clematis too! Your Daniel Deronda is lovely!

Look at that root system! Does it usually bloom the first year for you?

I can believe your heart skipped a beat for this one, Jeanne. Whose heart wouldn't? It's truly gorgeous.
