And what a lovely  tribute to Margaret Owen the whole segment from Mark Heath  was.

I must say, I am prepared to believe that Shropshire is one of the coldest counties  in England - but it is really a stretch to regard it as being in any way, in "the North of England"!

Was it Clematis heracleifolia? I seem to remember seeing it in a recent programme. I have two in the garden. They flower fairly late in the season and are good for insects.
