Nature Friday ~ July 12, 2019

Our favorite day is here so that means, we’re joining our good friends and hosts, Rosy and her brothers from LLB in Our Backyard. Other than the arrival of the weekend, we love Fridays because wine arrives too. After a stressful week, a lovely glass of wine at the end of the day sure hits the spot, don’t you think?

We know wine comes from grapes which are vines so we thought we’d highlight another vine plant nature has been showing off this month in spite of pizza-oven heat. Our favorite vine in the garden (other than the grape) is Clematis.

Clematis

With nearly 300 species within the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae, one of the most popular of the hybrids in the Clematis family is C. Jackmanii. It has been a garden standby since 1862. This cultivar was named after 19th century British nurseyman, George Jackman. As a hybrid, “Jackman” comes from the marriage of C. Lanuginosa and C. Viticella. Clematis can be woody and deciduous; there are also herbaceous and evergreen varieties as well.

Jackman blooms in our Zone 5 garden in July and like many Clematis needs support. It likes well drained soil and shallow rooted plants around the base provide the necessary shade to cool the roots. It does not like ‘wet feet’ and seems to do well in a xeriscape garden. Jackman has large (5 inches across) blooms, which come in a dark purple-violet color.

Here’s one last look at Jackman with best wishes for a terrific weekend. We hope you are able to enjoy a bit of the magic that Mother Nature provides.

Live, love, bark! 🐾

  1. We love our clematis! It is prolific in the late spring/early summer, but it continues to throw out a bloom here and there all summer long. It was new to me not that long ago when I planted one at our old house, but I was thrilled to find a much healthier bush here at our new house!

      They are sooo pretty. The heat is taking the steam out of blooming right now but if it cools a bit we might get another bloom or two.

  2. So beautifuls! It reminds me of Ma’s passionflower vines! They are the kerazist flowers! I’m gonna tell Ma we needs this one too. Oh, and a margarita sounds FABulous after a long hour of barkin’ at tree rats! Oh, you said WEEK ~ oh, that too…heheheee Ma said a glass sounds good, butts she tends to skip the alcohol cause it can trigger her my-grains. Some day she’ll risk it! BOL

  5. We loved seeing your Clematis, ours blooms in April or May and we are so thankful it survived and comes back year after year. Mom bought it on clearance and it was half dead but with some tender loving care it managed to live and thrive with her neglecting it after the first year. (sigh) at least she remembers where it is at so she doesn’t pull it up when she is weeding.

      Sadly there is a whole graveyard of clematis over the years but I think I’ve finally figured out a few tricks to keep it loving lovely. Kudos to your mum for ‘rescuing’ a clearance planting!

Mom Sonel says I deserve all the love in the word and calls me her Little Lion Prince. I love taking strolls on the beach and watching the sunrise with mom, and sometimes we meets new and strange friends. Mom would then take photos of them and we would learn more about them. Come and join me in my adventures if you are not scared, and remember to be kind, respectful and friendly. Mom Sonel and I love folks like that. 😊
    Rambo says:

    Wow! Those are amazing photos of stunning flowers! Such beauty! 😀

    Yes, Mom also loves to relax with a glass of wine or sherry. We also want to wish you all a wonderful weekend. Lots of wet kisses and hugs to you all. 😀 😘😘😘💕💕💕

      I can only imagine. The two clematis planted in my garden seem to struggle with a lack of moisture since I’m rather stingy with supplemental waterings. This year in particular it has looked quite raggedy and think that whining I hear when I’m out and about the garden must be its reaction to the harsh conditions.
