C. florida 'sieboldii' does really well in our warmer climate. It's too
tender for cold winters. Mine gets lots of shade and still blooms. I'd like
to find a place where it would get the optimum root shade and sun on the rest
of the plant. The other one that does well is 'virgin's bower.' I don't
know the scientific name. I bought it from the California Native Plant
Society. It grows up over the porch railings and through the climbing rose.
The clematis society might have more detailed information for you:
