This is one of Ray Evison's Patio Collection Clematis. They are smaller in height and can be planted in large containers, so you can enjoy them up close. This one is blooming indoors in my sunroom.
Does any one else grow any of his Patio Collection? Please post a picture if you have one.
Shirley!!..How pretty...I have two posts that we have the Purple Martin Houses on that I want to grow some of the shorter varieties!!..Dh says I can't grow anything that would hide his telescoping buttons that are on the poles about 3-4 feet from the ground..LOL....can't isn't in my vocabulary but I can grow short with a "pretty please and thank you"...LOL......thanks for sharing....Jeanne
Thanks Jeanne. Ray Evison's Patio Collection might be just what you are looking for if you want shorter growing vines. This article will give you more information about his Clematis. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/nwgardens/270687_clematis20.html?source=rss
These were among his patio collection listed in the article above:
'Angelique' -- Pale lilac flowers with stripes down the petals.
'Bourbon' -- Red-purple with yellow center.
'Cezanne' -- Large violet flowers.
'Parisienne' -- Mauve flowers with red centers.
'Picardy' -- Large pink-red flowers with a yellow center.
'Versailles' -- Wine-red flowers.
Shirley, I'm growing Picardy, but I got a new computer and haven't got my pics from the old to the new yet. I did post pics of the blooms last year when I got some tho. I'll have to find them.

I have been coveting "Cezanne" for a couple of years now since, I think I saw a pic of Katie's posted over at GB's site!!...Jeanne

I found your thread http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/600995/ and it shows Clematis, "Picardy", plus other DG'ers added a picture of "Versailles" and I believe "Cezanne". Perfect for Clematis container collections!
