Clematis not yet known

14 comments


I took a stroll down the garden this afternoon and noticed the clematis covering hubbies retreat was in full bud. I only know that this is a blue flower and am looking forward to it opening. I cant recall it opening this late in the year before. Will post a further photo when it blooms.

Its lovely wonderful amount of buds you have, best wait till it flowers and then place picture of flower on gardening questions, hard to tell just from the leaves.

I think a lot of clematis think its spring already....I have a few that are sprouting. That looks as if its going to be a beauty!!

The leaves look like Clematis Armandii, but that has creamy white buds and white flowers..starts flowering soon though. Would love to see a pic of yours in flower Stroller...I'm intrigued :))

I have no idea what it is Stroller but it looks like a big yen (as Billy Connolly would say!)

Lots of things are out of season this year. I think of it as an extra bonus. I look forward to seeing your clematis when it's open.

It's an evergreen one - or the leaves would at least have started to drop off. Are you sure the flowers are blue? SO many buds! It'll be a picture in flower. :-))

Yes Sanbaz it has flowered before but my son cut it almost to ground level a couple of years ago to repair hubbies retreat and it didn`t flower at all last year. I`m sure that the year before that it was blue but don`t know the name.
