    My clemantis , FIREWORKS has been blooming its head off. I put it on the dog fence around the kennel to give it a nicer look. All I have to worry about is the dogs chewing on the flowers when I put them inside of it....I only put them in when I am mowing or if they bark too much at someone passing which usually isn't too much.

    Oh lovely!!! :D I hope the dogs don't chew on them as it would be such a shame to see those gorgeous blooms destroyed.

    Holy Cow, Sherry! :eek:
    What a performance! That 'Fireworks' is really showing off this year, isn't it?
    I just love to see a Clematis when it's blooming heavily.

    I'll bet you're pretty proud of this one.
    Brava! :sete_005:
