    Not sure about the names of the next 2, but the first is very similar to my Duchess of Edinburgh that isn't blooming yet

    Those are all beautiful as they are my favorite color. But I'd pick 'the President' as my favorite!

    I'm very fond of the alpine clematis, but those other ones are really delightful too. I think the double white one is gorgeous.

    Oh so many to choose from. Now I'd have the alpine, the President and the double white for sure but wouldn't refuse any of the others either!!!! :-D

    I love your clematis! I can't wait for mine to start blooming. I have three and this is the 3rd year, hopefully I will get some blooms this year. I got 2 last year but the plants are much bigger this year. Keep sharing your gorgeous pictures! :stew1:

    Those are just to wonderful for words.The only thing that would make them better is for them to be in my yard :).Those are my favorite colors too.

    Really lovely Clematis'.It's a nicce variety. That poor little alpine does look a bit wind-blown, but still a star.
    Thanks for these pics.

    I planted my first two Clematis's this year and if mine look half as good as yours next year I'll be doing a happy dance. I have a feeling if you and I were together plant shopping we'd both be picking up the same thing.
