Does that get me off your rogues gallery? :~) I do admire your datura. I'd love to grow one, but I have a daffy cat who thinks she's a caterpillar ... chomp .. chomp :~( I recognised the Campsis, but couldn't come up with the species name. Most frustrating. It's a beautiful vine. My sort of colour, too. Thanks for sharing your pics. Spider |

Nick, I would regard radicans as being the tough one and grandiflora as being more tender, the crosses are generally hardy allthough don't always flower well if some stems do not over winter and for that they need summer heat. You should be pleased you did not plant C radicans as it is an invasive nuisence and suckers like mad, but it does also self cling :~) -- Charlie Pridham, Gardening in Cornwall www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of national collections of Clematis viticella cultivars and Lapageria rosea |
