[Sheri]

A concise introduction to clematis briefly covering just about every growth and care issue with the exception of problems and pests. I did finally find a possible solution for my non-thriving clematis buried in a summer what-to-do section. (Liquid seaweed or tomato fertilizer). Until I can get my clematis to thrive and display many vibrant flowers, the rest seems superfluous. On the other hand, it's an easy read for someone considering adding a clematis to their garden, so do pick it up if you're looking to learn more before you buy.
