That is lovely! I am so sad, I lost my clemmies that were climbing the arbor to "Clematis wilt" this year. I have no idea if they will come back but it isa grim sight right now.

Thanks for posting your beautiful ones!

We have had the wilt a couple of years and the clemmies have always come back better than ever. The first time the plants succumbed, I thought they were goners, but the next year they were full and lovely. Hopefully, yours will do the same. :D

jackmani just love to bloom and yours look lovely.

If clematis are planted deep enough, around the lenght of your hand, it will normally come back with new shots from the roots
