A Confused Princess Diana Clematis

This clematis really shouldn't be flowering at this time of year. I took the photo on a sunny day last week.

I have one that flowers early spring. Good thing, if it tried flowering now it would be under snow! Is this a second bloom on yours?

[Anne ❀]

beautiful bloom!

@gardencat Yes it is. The whole plant suffered from ‘clematis wilt’ or something and Chris cut all the dead bits off, right down at the base and it grew back much stronger, and flowered again.

Isn't that interesting. It is beautiful tho.
