  • Posted by lovemyhouse (Garland, TX (NE Dallas suburb) - Zone 8a) on Nov 12, 2012 8:24 PM concerning plant:
    This clematis is extraordinarily adaptable. I have heavy clay soil, it is planted in one of the hottest parts of the yard close to concrete sidewalks and between two concrete driveways, and receives little supplemental water. Gets crispy brown during the summer, but always comes back to bloom again in November and December.
