Ready to burst forth:
Fall Clematis
The advance guard.
Already blooming in the trees.
so you have some of it growing as a ground cover? very beautiful!
Thanks for the compliment. It is actually growing on a chain link fence in the first two photos and I believe it is but one plant. The 3rd photo is from a different plant and its climbed the tree its flowering in at least 15 - 20+ft. Both vines are several years old.
It looks like Sweet Autumn Clematis to me. This is a huge Clematis and very vigorous. It's best to grow it on a trellis, pergola, or fence.
I want some!!!!!!!!!
Nearing peak of bloom.
Closer.
Quit teasing me!! LOL
that is some fine! I look forward to mine looking like that some day soon
Mine's almost finished for this year..I will miss the wonderful smell, especially at night.. We can smell it from the porch.. Almost better smelling than honeysuckle.
larkie
Oh wow I wish that I could smell it.
Now I KNOW I have to have it. We have honeysuckle, and there's nothing better than to catch a whiff o' that...
