I managed to restore/repatriate my lost 2006 archive, what a relief: new plants for the year plus some second-year flowerers, plus one or two previous plants. If anyone is interested in new clematis. http://www.bcollingwood.com/archive_2006.htm etc

Brian, what a treat! I'm so glad you managed to restore this archive, which is pure 'eye candy' for the rest of us. I know this has probably been asked before, but when will 'Suzymac' be available here in the UK?

I like the Google Earth shot, which I missed before. Now if we could only zoom in on the plants...

Jane, I'm still not sure, but hopefully not too much longer. Glad you enjoyed the 2006 images, hopefully there should be more to come this year. Plants are going great guns at present, in fact, time to shade the glass again - a massive job! Lots of new viornae this year, some new hybrids, and lots of large-flowereds.

Brian, it is a real delight to look at your babies. Am glad you managed to restore your archive. I have to say the bells are my favourites, although Seedling G132A, NS G135C,G135A,are close seconds. I can't wait till the day some of my little seedlings get big enough to have a flower.

You have some real beauties there. Suzymac is incredibly rich in color but there are too many favorites to list. How many seedlings do you think you start a year?

Usually have 2-300 plants (at all stages) on the go at any given time Loretta. This year it is 243 plus seedlings, cuttings etc. I have some cuttings of Suzy Mac in flower at present, even the cuttings are lovely!

What a wonderful collection you have going there. I think the color in G135C is incredible, like a plum! But G173H took my breath away. If that held half the color it has under you glass in my yard it'd be my new favorite clematis. I should introduce myself, I think I've only lurked in the clematis forum until now. I'm Jamie from Wisconsin. My garden interests span all ends of the spectrum, but clematis and roses are my favorite. Thanks for sharing.
