ToMarilyn Dube:
I too love blue, even if it veers a tad toward
pink or purple. Last year i finally got Clematis
x Durandii--it was quickly sold out in past
years. Though it will take some time to become
floriferous and full, I love its blue, which
stands up to bright sun, where it has begun to
sprawl through neighboring plants and twine
through an obelisk. --- Rosalie Frost
