Nice one Charlie.
A good write up as well.

The patience of you nurserymen! A seed sprouts and 5 years later you
know whether it might grow into something of interest. Wow!

Think of it more like a sausage machine, you keep stuffing stuff in at one
end and eventually it starts coming out the other, so there are new
seedlings each year! At least Clematis are quick, the Lapageria can be 10
years or more.

And many trees are 25-50!

Looks good - well done. Did you have one on show at Longstock?

I assume that being a "Vit" it will have some wilt resistance.

Yes its a viticella type so no wilt problems, and yes we were selling them
at Longstock but as you know we keep everything cut hard back until it sells
so no flowers to see.

Ooooh! That's lovely, Charlie. Lots of flower on it...very tempting.
Maybe, when I've cleared a couple of beds and improved the soil, I will
have space for it.
I hope it repays all your effort. Should do - it's a beauty!

Absolutely beautiful!
(the grower, not so much, though it's nice to have a picture to go with the
name).

Yes, maples take 10 to 15 of evaluation to decide whether a cultivar is
in order. Or should, anyway.

Congratulations Charlie!

Many, many congratulations and so well deserved, not just for a
beautiful plant but your and Liz's hard work. Fantastic news, Charlie
and a definite trumpet blowing occasion!
