    Picked one up from Lowe's last night. I must be gettin' brave 'cause my track record with Clematis hasn't been great! *lol* Well, with the exception of SAC...but hey, ya don't exactly need a green thumb for that one!

    So does anyone have it and if so, has it been an asset in your garden?

    Oh yeah...gorgeous flowers! I just hope that the tag in mine didn't get mixed up with any of the other clematis. Dang, I hate it when that happens!!!

    Boofru....I have "Piilu" and she has been the worse performer of all my clematis but I think it is where I have her as others have different results of her in their gardens...Jeanne
    I am thinking of digging her up next late winter and moving her

    I have Little Duckling, planted her last fall...she is small but has had a few blooms. It's to soon to tell how she will be. I got her at Lowes also.

    Eek Boofru..the two key words here hon are:
    "It has done very well in other online friend of mines gardens and I need to move mine"...I have mine planted where I forget at times to water...and also at the bottom of climbing rosa "Teasing Georgia"..My two mistakes and this should be of value to you when placement of her...She doesn't get very tall...maybe 4 to 5 feet...I am going to dig her up and put her in a less sunny place...possibly in a pot or on a small obelisk...so have faith..and avoid my mistakes and she might just be the "Jewel of your Garden"...Jeanne
