By canadanna | It would seem that clems would not fit into my gardening style of naturalized settings with easy-care adapted and native plants. The fact that I can grow them should encourage you if you want to try them. My experience is in a warm southern climate, so the bloom times are generally better in the spring and fall.

| Thanks, Anna, for writing this article on one of my favorite vines. It's great to have so many clematis lovers sharing their experience growing these lovely plants. I started with Jackmanii, Ville d'Lyon, and sweet autumn. I am founding out that there are so many clems just waiting for me to add to my collection.

Anna, I can relate to the sentimental part of growing Clematis jackmanii. Every time I see one it reminds me of my Grandma.  Nice article, and you have a beautiful collection of clematis too.

| It is a learning curve. These vines don't follow all the rules! |
