I received her last August from a friend who added some of her seedlings to a box of clematis she had picked up for me and babysat through the hot weather. Am totally thrilled Alison. The plant has been indoors over winter and sat in front of a sunny window, not under lights.

Have you decided on a place outside yet?

Let's hope the "odorata" gene gets passed along. Can you tell if it has any scent at this point? Kristl - Ontario, Zone "4"   Maggiepie  Posted on Wednesday, April 30, 2008 - 03:27 pm EST :    Jane, I think I have the perfect place for it. Kristl, there is definitely an odour to it, but am not sure I would call it an attractive odour. Am wondering if it needs to be in the sun to make it smell right. One thing does confuse me though, I was under the impression that Atragenes bloom on old wood. This is blooming on new growth, there was no old wood. Is this common?
