I can't believe this the other clematis I ordered i.e Mrs N Thompson has
just started to flower, photo in link.

It looks exactly like the "The President" which I ordered from a
different company. Both plants seems to be Piilu.

Does anyone know if the clematis plants come from the same source?
The Mrs N Thompson was ordered from J Parkers.

Impossible to answer here. You'd need to contact your suppliers as
there are a number of specialist wholesale clematis nurseries. Your
suppliers may have had similar comments/complaints from other
customers, and may be prepared to give you a refund.

You could try asking the British clematis society, who list some
commercial producers, (but I suspect not all, as they only seem to
list those also selling direct to the public).

and there's Guernsey clematis, who specialise

Thank you so much for all the info. I am most puzzled as to how this
has happened.
