Crikey, thatโ€™s well on Brue. Everything here has gone back to sleep itโ€™s so cold. My poor Pieris has had its bright red tips frost scorched๐Ÿ˜ข

Found room for 5 more Clematis albeit my garden is very small. 

John Paul II, Multi Blue, Polish Spirit , Montana and  Madam J Corevon. So hoping for lots of colour.

Multi-Blue is quite beautiful, mine are just creeping open now & this year it has multi heads as a bonus. For a few years it struggled with flower amounts but not this year๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

My Multi - Blue had 3 blooms when I purchased it , so yes nice Clematis.

wondered did anyone see the Lady on Gardeners World who had 110 different Clematis.

I’ve had one of my very well established Montana’s badly hit by frost this year. It’s still alive, but I have had to cut it back. First time ever seen this happen, all my others are fine, no damage at all. Hoping it might make a late flush now.

Yes these late frosts have knocked back most plants . I lost a much prized Acer along with a Clematis, and Hydrangeas.

They look great Rocky, some of mine have been a bit of a failure this year.
