Got a garden voucher for a birthday so just purchased two more Clematis . I have 14 different ones now , most are  just coming into flower . My favourite at the moment  in all its splender is  'Warsaw Nike' a deep purple single flower. whats your favourite Clematis ?

Hosta, does your "Warsaw Nike" resemble the one on my previous photo, as I think that's what it is?

 Yes Nellie, Looks as if it is the same . My favourite but as stated earlier the winds have really battered mine.

Anyone recognise this one? We've lost the label, think it might be "Constance." It's out now, took this photo in the week.

Crikey, that’s well on Brue. Everything here has gone back to sleep it’s so cold. My poor Pieris has had its bright red tips frost scorched😢

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.
