RE: Clematis Questions

It is the bane of my existence.  I spent 2 hours weeding it out of an area just 6 x 6 yesterday.  Out of one my plant on the far east side of my corner, it is nearly a problem in every bed, sun or shade, dry or moist.  It is a shame, because it would be lovely to have where you DID want it.  Personally, I think in the PNW it should be labeled a weed and one the 'banned' list.

Thanks, Susan, for all the information about the clematis.  I'm really
looking forward to growing them.  By the way, the author of the book you
recommended (Trouble Free Clematis:  The Vitacellas) is John Howels -- I'll
look for the book.

Yes, you did send me some Corydalis lutea seeds a while back, but
unfortunately I didn't get any to germinate.  Marge also gave me one from
her garden last Fall, but I've yet to see anything of it this Spring.  I
want what you have -- lots of Corydalis lutea!!  It's so interesting how
this grows so easily in some areas but not in others.  I've not yet given up
on it, and still try to get it whenever I can!
