Look At The View From My Kitchen Window

Isn’t it beautiful!  It’s a Clematis vine.

I planted it about three years ago on one side of our deck.  It gets full sun and the sad thing is, I do absolutely nothing to it.  I don’t even prune it.  Now that’s my kind of plant!

I think this particular color is called blue angel.  I can see why a Clematis is called “queen of the flowering vine” .   Isn’t it just gorgeous?

One more picture of the view from my kitchen window.

  1. It is gorgeous, Gail! I have two myself, a white one that I have going up the side of my gazebo and a purple one that is mixed with a climbing pink rose. I don't do anything to them either {actually, I don't baby any of my plants} and they do so well every year.

  7. This is my favorite of all vines! I tried growing one myself but no luck. I think maybe it's too hot here. Guess I'll just have to adore yours from afar!

  10. LOVE IT~!! I had one at my mailbox for 4 years and when the cable company came by to run underground line and killed it.. Seeing yours inspires me to buy another..

  11. Love your Clematis. I have one in the front of our house,that is doing lovely too. They are so easy and require nothing, which is great for me. Have a great day Gail!

  12. That is absolutely and totally GORGEOUS! And I am a tiny bit jealous!!! I have planted a clematis vine twice, and it just died on me both times. I want one so badly to do well and do what yours has done. I was talking to a lady at Costco who bought one there and I asked her for tips on where and how to tend it. Maybe I will try again, they are so pretty.
    Hugs, Cindy
