Description
This photograph of Blue Clematis blossoms was taken this spring while visiting a local greenhouse.
Clematis have been popular among gardeners, beginning with Clematis -jackmanii, a garden standby since 1862; more hybrid cultivars are being produced constantly. They are mainly of Chinese and Japanese origin. Most species are known as clematis in English, while some are also known as traveller's joy, a name invented for the sole British native, C. vitalba, by the herbalist John Gerard; virgin's bower for C. viticella; old man's beard, applied to several with prominent seedheads; and leather flower or vase vine for the North American Clematis viorna.
I hope you have enjoyed this photograph and will share it with others. You can see more of my work on my homepage in the various galleries I have created. Thank you for visiting and please come back.

Bruce,This is a scrumptious looking flower. I wish they made a dessert out of it. If it was sweet I would eat it. You should call some of the flowers deserts. Thanks for support! Friend,Marsha F/L
