[PhylM-S]

The tones you have here... beautiful.

[bruni]

I love them. they're beautiful. we mustn't have the right soil for them. they don't do well for us. I read a comment where you said your husband overwaters your flowers. I did too and then my hubby bought a Rapitest Mini MoistureTester at a nursery and it tells you when the plant needs water.

[Lou Ann]

@bruni oh I need to find that moisture tester! Thank you!

[Wendy]

You have clematis already!! Wow!
So pretty!

[Lou Ann]

@farmreporter this is a shot from my archives. Wish it was now. We’ve lost a lot of landscaping due to the deep freeze.

[Wendy]

Oh well - plants, like a bad haircut - will grow once again!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great composition and such pretty colors. I've had trouble with some of the colors, too.

[Pat Knowles]

@happysnaps @joansmor @ludwigsdiana @elatedpixie @farmreporter @mittens @happypat @pcoulson @gijsje @danette @sarah19 @carolmw @olivetreeann @grammyn thank you all so much for your wonderful comments and your faves! This is on the TP this afternoon, thank you! We are having a cleanup of all the landscaping that did not survive the bitter cold. I lost my clematis, and plan to replace it.

[katy]

So sorry to hear you lost this one!

[Lou Ann]

@grammyn thank you Katy! 🥰

[Lin]

Perfect composition!

[Wendy]

You should wait before replacing your clematis, Lou Ann. It looks like a Jackmanii (spelling?) and they survive our winters just fine.
Cut it right down to the ground and you should see new sprouts springing up soon.
It never hurts to wait!

[Milanie]
