I have 5 Clematis vines, four pink and one dark purple, but none of them are as pretty as yours. However, they are doing better this year. May be all the rain we have had, plus I put scrap batting around the base of them and covered it with mulch early this spring.

One more question??
I just looked at mine closely. Some of the vines look dead but there are new leaves on them. Do yours do that??
I'm going to leave it for now as it's blooming and put some mulch around it.
Thanks

i have all mine on the northside of my house/fence. it gets the most sun. i have transplanted a few ..thier roots run deep..so it may die if you don't get most of the roots..
they should be cheaper now..to buy..or wait till later in the year

I have that same color! My sis bought it for my birthday last year. It's really small still, but had nearly a dozen blooms on it until our storm took all the petals off.
I'm thinking of building an arbor over my front walk so I have an excuse to plant more.
