Clematis Nelly Moser in our garden...



Comparison to the earlier Clematis Nelly Moser post, the colour and shape of both plants is different.

Clematis from Ancient Greek klematis, a climbing plant, probably periwinkle is a genus of mostly vigorous climbing lianas, with attractive flowers.
Some species are shrubby, and some others are herbaceous perennial plants.
They are found throughout the temperate regions of both hemispheres, and also in mountains in the tropics.
The cool temperate species are deciduous, but many of the warmer climate species are evergreen.
Most species are known as Clematis in English, while some are also known as traveller's joy, leather flower, vase vine and virgin's bower, the last three being names used for North American species.
One recent classification recognised 297 species of clematis.
