        Hi Harry I grew that Clematis a number of years ago; pronounced "chum-lee", its a town/village in Cheshire close to where I used to live, no doubt something to do with that??? :biggrin:

              I thought I had better post some pictures as it is the end of the month. I've tried to limit the amount but haven't succeeded very well. so I'll have to post them in batches.

              This wisteria starts off with a hint of pink but then turns almost pure white

              These pansies are in one of our winter hanging baskets. As they are all still in full bloom we've stood them on pots and hung up our summer baskets.
              P1090874.JPG


              These clematis are part of the batches we bought from The Range at 5 for £10. The labels are hidden in the undergrowth so I don't know their names.
