    I did a bit of a hatchet job on this one late last summer and it has bloomed for the first time since I moved here. The flowers emerge in clusters..................

          Sorry for the delay in replying, but I've only just tripped over this Thread. Well, it's obviously an evergreen, and a Armandii variety. Having looked at the shape of the petals I would lean towards it being "Apple Blossom" rather than "Snowdrift":thumbsup::coffee: Either way, it's a great Clematis and will cover a large area if not pruned.:snork:
