here is violet elizabeth with rouge cardinal and blue angel. kind of an accidental combo,
but it has grown in nicely.
more combinations
Happy accidents are the best!
I LIKE IT!!..Gorgeous...Jeanne
Very nice :)
thanks meig.it is another accidental combo. the rose has been in for a couple of years and surprised me with its vigor this year. i am just now getting into some roses as friends to the clematis. so the color scheme was an accident as hagley went wild this year leaping over near the rose. but i like the color combo. you are in a similar zone to me, i am 5b. it is a great clematis zone, don't you think?
Niobe ..how beautiful!!..I do love those two colours together...Roses like clematis really come into their own in year 3...stunning!!...Jeanne
Niobe,
Yeah, I think Z5 is a good zone for clems, except that mine do die down to the ground every year so my G2's never get really tall. I had better luck at my old house (11 miles west from here) with G2's. I live on a pretty open and windswept lot now and the G2s just don't make it as well and take more babying than I like so I tend to stick to G3s these days. However, I was looking back at some of my old pictures and now I really want to get some G2s again, like Ramona and Fireworks, LOL. They're so beautiful.
Niobe that combo looks so pretty!!!
