Clematis
Dear all,
I've been catching up reading posts instead of working on reports!
I grow Clematis heracleifolia (group 3) which is a woody based perennial.
It had medium blue 1.5" whorled flowers and is very floriferous in part
shade. It doesn't get taller then about 30". I lean it on a short metal
trellis for support. See my photo album marked clematis for pictures.

I think there's a big difference between bush and non-viner. To me, the
non-vining Clematis are sort of vines that have nothing with which to grasp
and climb, so I tend to think of them more as creepers. Anything labeled
'bush' should be a woody - it should have somesort of woody base at least.
It was my impression that there were regular climbing/vining Clematis,
Non-vining Clematis, and Bush Clematis. But it appears to me now that there
is a fourth type, an herbaceous perennial that is erect, doesn't get tall
enough or have the capability of, or need to grab support. However, I would
suppose this fourth type, not having a lot of members has been lumped into
non-vining. This not something I've read, just my own interpretation.
Anyone clarify further?
Kitty
