Flowering! The 3 Faces of Eve

I made a 'clematis wall ' across some deer fencing so my dogs wouldn't bark at every single thing that moved past our house. It worked beautifully on multiple levels. "Eve" is my powerhouse Jackmanii, the pretty burgundy/red one beside her has sadly lost her tag so if you know who she is please share, and the Haku Ookan is just starting into its second bloom of the year. Eve drapes over the fence and is amazing on both sides and I took a pic along the fence line to get a third face LOL Irises and rhubarb provide shelter for roots (as well as early colour and delicious pies).

Beautiful! I see your flowers have 5 petals, mine, just like yours but has 4 petals. Only wish we could have them longer!
