Hi dirtdorphins.
I didn't have a chance to look at the plant today but I'll probably get it next week. The gardener told me that she dug up the main plant and moved it on the other side of her house but she missed a piece. I'll be the one digging it up so I'll try to get as much of the root mass as possible. I definitely have plenty of shade, in fact I have too much
It's a noid clematis but the lady told me it has light purple blooms so that could be several varieties lol.
