Sacha, I've bought Flammula and Jouiniana Praecox. I might try your (Charlie's) Lambton Park next time. Thanks anyway for the idea. Hugh C. flammula is *lovely*. We lost our pergola grown one to too much wet but it's a beautiful Clematis. I don't know the other at all, so I'll look it up. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon Its a lovely thug http://www.flickr.com/photos/89219640@N04/9675746535/ -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |

Charlie, will you cut your C. rehderianas back this year? Ours took so long to grow after that cold start and has flowered so shyly that I'm wondering if we should best leave it alone this year? It's a big favourite of mine and I don't want to risk losing it if it's better left to its own devices. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

Lovely and very helpful, thank you. I first saw it at a friend's house in Cornwall and he used to cut his back in autumn after flowering but it was a huge brute of a thing! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |
