I tend to call this cystitus - but you know what I mean.
This little darling serenaded us through out lunch.
These are good value - I hope mine come up again this year.
A white clematis - so pure and pristine.

That cystitus looks like "broom" to me. We have a beautiful variety in our garden than is red and yellow, although it's a long way from blooming yet :)
Ah, a clematis, mine died. I've got a Campsis, though, and I've no idea how that survived.
(Ah, no, I'm wrong, it's me Camelia that died, I have 2 healthy Clematises.)
Did you buy anything, or were you just looking?
Cheers.
Our flower situation is sparse around here. So far we have one Iris in bloom.
Kim: yes broom and cystus I think are the accepted names. Yours sounds very exotic.
Gadjo: sorry about the camellia. Must look campsis up. I've lost a number of plants this year - old age I hope.
Oooh trumpet shaped - I haven't had that.
Randall: I wasn't tempted to buy because I have a rose, a potato flower plant and a clematis waiting to be planted round my depleted arbour. Karen wants to pull up paving stones but they are too difficult and my strong young man has got an inguinal hernia. Karen has just moved house and been away for three weeks so we are in stasis just now.
Granny Annie: I love irises - they are blue and white ones and about to bloom.
How lovely. I do like the purple flowers!
Oh, broom I love the smell of it, we will have it here soon, yum.
Leigh: purple and dark red can be show stoppers. I've just planted Sara Raven's dark red dahlias.
Eryl: I haven't had it in the garden for years - it can be thuggish and take over.
I've had two brooms die on me this winter, largely due to old age. They were a nice backdrop to the border.
And my Erysium "Bowles' Mauve" is but a fond memory. I also had another perennial wallflower, the name of which I cannot remember, that opened a rich brown, went straw yellow and then faded to lilac. Ah well...
Kevin: I hope I haven't lost my erysium. They say it's a good thing to lose plants occasionally or you'd never have space for new ones.
Oh, how lovely to eat lunch at The Nursery! So many pretty things to see...!
Naomi: yes we should do it more often.
