Re: Shrubby Clematis


Sorry, I should have said C. integrifolia, not terniflora.  
C. durandii was the one shown most.  I was surprised to hear it 
called a shrub Clematis.  Susan, he said he propped it up initially 
with brush but had also planted Artemisia around it for support and 
color contrast.  I don't think he gave the species of Artemisia used 
or the size.   What shrub do you grow it through?

Non-climbing, one beautiful blue is climatis x
durandii (?).  Not really shrub like, I grow it
through a smallish shrub for support.  Exquisite
deep blue/purple flowers.  Perhaps what you
saw?
