Delicate colors are so soothing. I love the color of the flower and the accompanying leaves. A match made in heaven, perhaps!

(32,704 posts)8. I planted a clematis in April
and the damn bunny that has dug under my courtyard fence got in and ate it! Fortunately, it missed a few leaves and the clematis is slowly putting out some new growth. Damn rabbit! The fence line has been reinforced with pavers for over a week, and so far, the rabbit has not gotten back into my courtyard.
