Clematis
Shut your eyes… wait… okay, now OPEN them! Yes, we are back in the early summer with all that implies. Feel the lazy heat, hear the bees droning around the flowers, see the gorgeous, frivolous clematis flowers climbing up the support, their voluptuous pink veined petals spilling over each other and almost hiding the trellis behind. My friend, who has the greenest thumbs and fingers of any, treated me to a ‘socially distanced’ visit to her garden and I got so many beautiful photos, including her beautiful Kwanzan Cherry blossom that I shared around the time of my visit. I feel that although summer is well and truly over and the colour is all in the trees now, such reminders of summer beauty as this can only brighten our days even more. So expect more of them through the colder, darker months in the Northern Hemisphere. I wish you all a lovely Sunday. View all posts on the Home page. A Flower a Day #407

Don’t you just love the gradations of pink on these frilly petals of the gorgeous clematis. Personally, I have never met a clematis I didn’t love…and this is no exception. Thank you, Ellie, for introducing me to this perfect PFD specimen.
I do! I do! And I agree with you on all points on your comment, Janet (as is so often the case). Indeed a great PFD posting on a very chilly day. I’m glad to be back in the summer, if only in spirit. Thanks again.
Thanks for bringing us back to the early summer. Some of our fall days have actually felt like early summer. What a lovely pastel colour that is. Thanks again for sharing hugs to you and Steve.
It’s my pleasure, Linda. We need a little summer today, that’s for sure! It’s cold! Have a lovely day, yourselves.
