SWEET AUTUMN CLEMATIS flowers
 

I've had 2 of these growing for the past 2 years in Indiana and they grow
like crazy, but where are the autumn fragrant flowers I heard about?

This is year #2 and I don't see anything that even resembles a flower.

??? mine flowered first year. maybe you bought duds? where did you buy them? how
much sun do they get? Ingrid

pretty much full sun....bought at Meijer stores....can this plant actually
be a "dud" and not flower?

Foliage like crazy but not a single flower and here it is October.

all of mine died for whatever reason, but the remaining vine hidden in the
dead foliage regenerated me a few green sprigs and that sprig is now
blooming a few flowers for me. I suspect that the plant's roots were
disturbed by my clumsy cat that likes to perch on the rungs of the trellis
the clematis is clambering over. It used to house the wisteria, and
underneath it, is a kerria japonica that is intent on conquering that corner
of the bed. I suspect Piquito or Polluxx got in there under the bushes
limbs and disturbed wherever the roots of the sweet Autumn clematis was at,
everywhere else, along side the country roads and everywhere here in Eastern
Tennessee, it was incredible. And the fragrance is when it's sunny. The
blossoms smell like warm honey. In cooler weather it would need a sunny day
to release the subtle but strong perfume of honey. Ours here bloomed out by
end of August, early September. TIme to gather seed heads now, and try and
tear up some vines from the side of the road where it grows wild. buy it?
nawww, I dig it up alongside the road, there's so much of it around me.
especially where the lake goes down every fall g
