Flower of the Day (FOTD): Clematis
April 26th, 2019
The wild Clematis species native to China made their way into Japanese gardens by the 17th century. Japanese garden selections were the first exotic clematises to reach European gardens, in the 18th century… — Wikipedia
Clematis has about 300 species.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day:
Looks ever so pretty. Great captures, Amy!

Clematis grow wild in the hills of India. I wonder whether they were brought as garden plants by Europeans and have escaped into the wild, or whether they are native.

Your Clematis are very beautiful. Thank You. When we lived on countryside, we had them also on the sunny wall of our garage. Some of them died, but happily some survived. They had the same color exactly than in Your photos.
