Purple Delight
Despite late frosts earllier in the month, the ever faithful Clematis has once again returned.
The Clematis is beautiful! I love the deep purple. Last year sometime, our big dog Eli got tangled up in the Clematis vine. What a mess! It looked dead this spring, but I have found a new green shoot already climbing the post. Hopefully, there will be a bloom or two.

My mother has so many clematis in her yard. I need to find one, they truly are beautiful.
Oh beautiful... mine has not started to bloom as of yet so I am certainly enjoying yours. Have a great week - wishing you blessings for your day.

The Clematis is a delight to behold, and Shelley's descriptive words are a breath of spring.
More rain here and the temperature has dropped.
