I am a bit late with these pictures but there is so much to catch up with on the forum just now I don't get round to posting.  My Clematis macropetala is very good this year.  It didn't get frosted and was not eaten by roe deer.  The first pic was taken on April 24th and the second four days later.

Very cool Clematis.  I have 'Maidwell Hall', which I love dearly.  Repeat flowers in autumn I find here as well.

So pleased to see your clematis Roma - it's gorgeous the way it displays each flower in tiers.  I have done a search on the site and can find no thread specifically on clematis....I love the alpinas and plan to establish some here scrambling up wild cherries/fir trees in the garden.  Unbelievable they are difficult to find!!!!!!!  In the UK I used a specialist nursery where they had some very unusual varieties which I grew but now would like to find out more for my Swiss mountain climate.  Kristi had some amazing gems for the rock/crevice garden too which I would like to try....I miss them terribly.  :'(
