Birds and Blooms magazine...

I had entered a photograph for subscribers last summer
I thought well with over 5 million subscribers mine will never
get published in their magazine..

I was looking through this copy of Birds and Blooms April/ May issue 2020
out now on stands and for sale....and admiring others photography
always such contrast and beautiful flowers and birds...

There on a page featured was my submission Dr. Ruppel the clematis!
I almost jumped out of my skin!

This morning I went out to tell Dr. Ruppel that he in all his splendor
in Sheris healing flower garden was published in the april may 2020 issue
of Birds and Blooms!

Here is my entry below to Birds and Blossoms...
and their publication out now for sale...and to subscribers
homes..

I will post this on the clematis forum and also all things gardening..
Hope you are happy for Dr. Ruppel!

Congratulations - beautiful clematis! I'm sure you were surprised and delighted to see
your entry published in this magazine.

Congratulations! Now I wish I hadn't given up my subscription. Dr. Ruple is one of my favorites and yours is exquisite!
