I know! Gorgeous, then the petals fall, softly to the earth, leaving behind the fuzzy green hearts. Then leaves fill in and hide the hearts. Such a beautiful vine, but it needs something like a porch to give it form and hold it up to the sun. 🙂
Brenda,
Thanks for visiting my Plant In The Sun blog and liking The Pink Bluebell story. I’ve been enjoying your site as well. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks! DJ
Ohhhhh Brenda! Your clematis flowers are beautiful. I’m going to take my laptop outside and show my five clematis plants what they’re SUPPOSED to be doing.
I have two tiny flowers on one. No flowers on two of the others. A flower trying hard to pop open on another and … a final one which flowers green flowers – so I have to study it very hard to see if it’s just an abundance of leaves or if there are actually any flowers there at all. Yes… going to show my little lot your clematis and tell them all that they simply must try a little harder!
😀 Fabulous photograph! (You should enter your photographs into competitions. I’m sure they’d win).
Actually you could have found the answer Brenda . . .
Maybe it’s because I talk TOO MUCH to them and that’s why they’re so tardy and lazy. They’re protesting about me yacking all the time. Perhaps I should try shutting up. LOL. 😀
I swear – there was a mushroom. A picture of a mushroom. On the reader of my iPad. I Swear I am not totally off my rocker, though I know some who would disagree.
I don’t disbelieve you, it just doesn’t show up on my screen so I don’t know how to remove it. It’s not supposed to be there. It’s supposed to just be a picture of clematis on a porch! How mysterious. 🙂
It is on my iPhone too. I took a screen shot of it. I can send it if you’d like. It looks kinda yummy, though I did think it was a bit odd to have a photo of a mushroom and a clematis but I suppose it did not matter cause I do like the fungus amungus.
Brenda, I do so love looking at the flower pictures you are foreveer sending. I am so glad my wife isn’t a blogger, I can only imagine what the inside of this house would be like. Take care, Bill
pretty in pink~

Clematis. A neighbor has grown these, and the bloom is wider than my hand, so it was easy to get a good picture. 🙂

Your clematis is incredible. The mushroom looks like it could make a tasty sandwich – grilled, balsamic vinegar, provolone ……yum…..
