A case of Mistaken Identity

Being in a new garden for the very first season has so many delightful surprises... and this one is no exception. What I mistakenly thought was a wisteria vine last fall, is in fact a clematis.
Behold.

The rainy Pacific Northwest weather has given way to a brief respite of sun - and 94 degree temperatures yesterday. The garden is awakening from its slumber.

 

If you happen to be wondering where I am, you can find me in the garden.

What a gorgeous retreat - and the clematis is simply stunning!! Such a fun place to play in the dirt...

94????! Dang. I don't want to skip spring, which we have the past few years (I had my air on by now last year) - this year, we're actually having spring (even if it is late).

Your garden is lovely! It almost makes me want to get out and pull all the weeds that's making mine look like a mess...almost.

Wow, what a beautiful space! It makes me feel happy just to look at the pictures.
