Does anyone have this clem? I have a red one that is NOID and the name is ringing a bell. I'm looking for a closeup of the anthers.
TIA!
Crimson King
Here's a closeup of the NOID unfurling. Look familiar to anyone?
I'm thinking it may be Rouge Cardinal now, that's a cultivar more widely available around here and I know this is one I just picked up from somewhere.
Meig..Please show a pic ..when it is full open..."RC" has beige anthers not red...Jeanne
Jeanne,
Here is another pic of the same bloom above (the earwigs got it). The anthers look more brown now. I was also thinking it could possibly be Madame Edouard, which I know you have. Is that possible? This one was taken at night with the flash.
One more, this is a newly opened bloom.
The flash washed it out slightly, the color is a little deeper in real life.
Anthers on the older bloom, close up. I'll try to get a more clear pic of these tomorrow during the day.
It very well could be hon..It also reminds me of Clematis "Barbara Harrington"...Where did you get her..that could also help in trying to figure it out...Jeanne
