    Clematis Ramona: I purchased her as a very small young plant in April at Walmart. She has grown well with morning and midday sun and plenty of water in 4 months in my flower garden. I also keep cypress mulch around her but not touching her stem at the base of the plant. I am looking forward to seeing her growth by next spring!
