I first began reading this forum a year ago, when I began a love affair with clematis, and wanted to successfully grow them in my garden. I found such good information and feedback at this forum.

This is my first bloom of the year, and I am so pleased with them. They are gorgeous, and make me happy every time I look at them. My house and trellises are currently being painted, so they will be even happier when they can climb at will.

I wanted to thank each of you for the wonderful advice and patient instruction, and to share my first clematis "baby pictures" with you!~

Fondly, Andrea
