| Clematis Plena Elegans |
If you haven't got late summer clematis scrambling through your shrubs and bushes now you are missing a treat. Its also low maintenance gardening.

| Clematis viticella Plena Elegans and clematis viticella Polish Spirit |
|
Its so simple, just look at that
colour. Here we have Clematis Plena Elegans adorning a marble leaved
photinia. Clematis viticella Polish Spirit is entwined with the dark red foliage of the cotinus (smoke bush.) Towards the end of the path a David Austin rose ramble below the wisteria. The under planting is Geranium Rozanne combined with sedums for late colour. To the right a border of Munstead Wood rose and Wisley 2008 under planted with a mix of herbaceous.

| Clematis triternata Rubromarginata |
Clematis triternata Rubromarginata with aromatic marzipan flowers scrambles through the second flush of flowers on the wisteria.
 |
| Clematis Viticella Polish Spirit |
Thriving on neglect yet it still surprises me with a wonderful flush of exciting colour. Clematis viticella varieties are a gift. Growing any aspect. Trim them down to size in late February as they flower on the current years new growth.
