RE: Help with plant ID


Kitty, I did find a link for the American Clematis Society, if that will
help you:

Updating my own post here.  I went looking for one and Hirt's greenhouse
carries it via eBay, as does Joy Creek (sold out) - which lists it as a
cross between C. virginiana and C. tubulosa.
And yes, she shows up in RHS searches of both C. tubulosa and C. virginiana.
Hmmm....
