Need ID Pretty Blue One

Can you tell me what this one is?

If no one can answer your question and you can't bear to have an unknown clematis in your garden, you can dig it up and send it to me. :) Not going for it, are you? :) LOL

Sorry but this is growing in someone else's yard! And I doubt they would appreciate it! But thanks for the offer, Ticker!

I think what you have pictured there is CLEMATIS STANS

Very pretty.

Aw, rats.. :) I was just trying to be helpful. ;) LOL

Hi Kim
Glad to meet another Mainer who likes clems.

Sent you a D-Mail Marie :)

what a pretty little bloom!.. she's kind of shy ; )

Ah, how cute!!! It looks like 'crispa'. Do you have a pic of the front of the bloom? Here's some not so great pics of mine. The pic is washed out, it's darker than that.

It is clematis crispa! Nice one, too.

So, it is not Stans? I just got that one and I was thrilled if the flowers look like that! I also have Crispa and that was my guess as to what it could be.

Actually I have a new crispa seedling in flower at the moment and I'll try and take a pic and post later. There was a thread here about crispa a few weeks back, (but no time to search for it now). Stans is a different type of clematis altogether, producing flowers which look, on an individual basis, a little bit like the crispa urn shape, but only superficially. Any resemblance ends there. Stans produces flowers in "clusters", and stans is a completely different group, type and habit, of clematis, whereas crispa flowers are much larger, different in form, and produced individually.

What a dainty little flower. Very pretty

I have ssome of the prettiest clematis this year and every winter i cut them to the ground and they come right back the following summer so huge. i have 5 differant colors

Gogitter, cool, take some pictures and post them, ok? :)
