I love this little clematis

It's called 'Fascination' . I think it's the perfect name for it . It certainly fascinates me...lol

VERY nice... Lori sent me some Clematis seeds and it looks like this but yellow. I'm waiting until fall to put down the seeds.

Hope they do well for you Mike, they are such a delight in the garden and they don't really take any room away from your other plants. I just let mine lay on top of my 'old gold' juniper.
Thanks Louise, I got lucky with this one.
Yes Mageth, it's one of the herbaceous types, this one blooms for several months, and doesn't get out of control.
Thanks Sanbaz, it does look like little hats now that you mention it...lol
I love this color too Youngdaisy, and I think the yellow background from my juniper's needles makes the purple color more pronounced. That turned out to be one of those lucky accidents....:-)

Ooh...I love it Flcrazy.....my faves are the lantern shapes...are they alpina or tangutica...not sure?....:o)

I'm not having any luck finding the answer to your question Janey, it's only listed on the web as Clematis ‘Fascination’ # PP14770.

I had to break down and order this one through a mail order catalog a few years ago, couldn't find it at any of our local nurseries. Sure hope you can find it Motinot, it's surprisingly well worth the effort to find.

Sometimes it just doesn't pay to look does it Sid....., wish I could grow a real money tree, then everything would be right in my little world...;-)

No it doesn't F1!! With me it's space. I need more space! But I suppose if I had more space, then i'd end up bankrupt from all the plants I would buy to fill it lol

I'm still looking for the fall blooming (late blooming?) clemmie that's white and fragrant! I LOVE this one though! LOL....I know what you mean about garden financial burden, Sid....I have been buying plants this summer when I expected to just go with what I had until the move was overwith...a rose and a clemm to go with it! But, Why Not?

23 Jun, 2009

 

Sid, I'm feeling your pain friend !....lol The way I see it is, if I wasn't buying plants, I'd just be wasting my money on something else, so what's the difference, right ?!
Lori if you are looking for the one called sweet autumn clematis,clematis terniflora, just let me know, I'll send you some seeds this fall, or if they will accept rooted soiless plants across the border, I'll send you a few vines instead !

23 Jun, 2009

 

I know that cuttings are ok...not sure about bare roots though. That is really kind of you..... GREAT! thanks Flcrazy!!

24 Jun, 2009

 

Well, I'll send you some then Lori, the only thing they can do is turn them down, right ? It's worth a shot ~!

24 Jun, 2009

 

I'm game if you are! let's see what they say.

gorgeos colour!

Thanks Marydoll, and welcome to GOY !

These are beautiful! I love the dark color. I found some herbaceous clematis like this though not in such a wonderful shade wild in Utah last week up on the rim of Bryce Canyon under the fir trees. 9000ft. Now I know how the vine survives.....there's no vine. :-)

Isn't it cool how they come in so many different colors, shapes, and sizes ! Just enough to drive us collectors crazy...lol

Such a little beauty.........

It's performance has really tickled me this year Dotty, and has peaked my interest in getting more of the integrifolia species. I have to admit it doesn't take much to get me interested in more plants...., I'm hopeless, I know !....lol
