Clematis 'Super Nova'

#clematischallenge2024 A great idea @jacaranda. This one comes back reliably year after year, this year it's gone over the fence too and I said to my neighbour I'd cut it back but she said no as it looks fabulous with her roses apparently!

Love the colour 🥰

I have this one too! It’s a real beauty so I’m not surprised that your neighbour is happy to have it hanging over the fence. 😂😂

Lovely colour 💜💜💜

Thanks everyone 😊 @debs69 @jacaranda @godfreye

#trellis Super Nova still going 💜. Been a difficult few weeks as my younger brother passed away after a short battle with cancer. I've been trying to support my 82 year old mum in coping with it all. Sometimes life just isn't fair is it. 😪

Oh Sue, I'm so sorry to hear this, life isn't fair, I agree. Don't forget to take care of yourself too. Sending virtual hugs 🤗🤗🤗

Sorry for your loss. Remember your own loss too and allow yourself the time to grieve. This plant is gorgeous and should help you smile x

Life isn’t fair 🥲 stay strong and look after yourself, must be very difficult for you and your Mum. Thinking of you x

Sending sincere condolences to you and your family Sue. My heart goes out to you all 😘🫂 xxx

So sad for you 💕

Morning Sue , so sad to hear this , same thing happened to me , very difficult time for you all .. big hugs xxx

So sorry for your loss Sue, sad times 💕

So sorry for your loss

I’m so sorry to hear your sad news, Sue. I understand how your mum must be feeling and I send love and hugs to her. Make sure you look after yourself, too, as you’ve lost your brother and you need to grieve. Love and hugs to you as well. 😘😘🤗🤗

@lilybee lm sending you lots and lots of hugs. I know how you are feeling, and l mean that literery. Thinking of you and your lovely mom. 🥰🥰

So sorry to hear this. Sending a big hug .

First flowers on Super Nova - if you're a clematis serial killer, then give this one a go as it's survived here for 4+ years! 😁 Had an hour's rain yesterday - not enough but better than nothing I guess. Enjoy your day 💜

😂😂 that made my laugh Sue .. we had some good rain yesterday afternoon 👍🏻

I have Super Nova too! She’s a real Super Trouper!!! 😂😂

Beautiful 👏😍💜

Morning everyone, not had much time for proper gardening recently, this was from my garden wander yesterday evening. Hope you are all OK and enjoying life 🌸🌸🌸

Morning Sue, it’s a lovely one 💜💙💜

Morning, you too Sue 💜💜💜 @lilybee

Morning Sue. Enjoy yours too 💜

Thank you and you too Sue 👍💜

Thanks ladies, did a weekly tidy of mum's garden today, I swear there was a 4ft bramble that had grown since last week! @anges @pelly @flof1952

Ours has no flowers yet🥺

Super nova….super flower…💜

Thanks Elaine, love the markings on this one @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

I have this! Isn’t it gorgeous 💜💜 I must remember to take a photo of it tomorrow 🤞😘

It was your pic last week that reminded me to photograph mine! 😆 @jacaranda

Wonderful 💜💜

Stunning colour 😍

Hope your gardens haven't sustained too much damage from the strong winds, this clematis is still doing ok thank goodness as it's one of my favourites! Enjoy your day 🌸🌸🌸

That's lovely Sue

Morning Sue.. still very windy along south coast ! That’s pretty 💜

Morning Sue, that's doing really well 💜💜💜

It’s a beauty thank goodness it survived....blowing a gale here...😟

Thanks very much Jayne 😊 @jaynehynesburton

Thanks Julie, still windy a bit further along the South Coast too! @juliesgarden

Thanks Elaine, hope all your fabulous roses are ok 🤞 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Thanks Ange, tried seaweed feed on my plants this year, definitely got more flowers on some plants but no idea if it's the feed or the relatively nice weather! @anges

Lots of super purple blooms 💜💜

Prolific flowers, lovely 💜

@lilybee A few heads have snapped and there’s petals everywhere...just spoils everything 😖 I wish it would ****** off...thanks for asking..

#macro I can't believe this is still flowering - the first flower came out 6 weeks ago! Hope you have a great weekend whatever you're doing. 🌸🌻💮

I have this one, Sue, and it’s been flowering nonstop for weeks! It’s in some shade, too, which makes it even more of a Super Star!!! 💜 @lilybee

That’s lovely 💗

I don't have much success with clematis but this is the exception! @jacaranda

Thanks Elaine 😊 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

💜👌🏻

Beautiful 💜

Thanks Terri and Rachel 😊 @telswirld @rachelbrooks

After a slow start this has now got lots of flowers on 💜. Enjoy your day whether your watching the sport or out in the garden. 🌸🎾🌻🏏🌹🏁💮

Wow! Glorious 💜💜💜

Blooming! 😀💜💜💜

That's beautiful Sue 💜💜

It’s a beauty 💜👌🏼

Thanks Rachel, I've been feeding it every week so hopefully that's made a difference. 🙂 @rachelbrooks

Thanks Ange, I don't have much luck with clematis but this one seems to be the exception! 🙂 @anges

Thanks Jane, should have posted it yesterday for #purple but didn't get round to it! 🙂 @pelly

Thanks Elaine, wish I could grow them like you do but never seem to have much luck with them, other than this one. 🙂 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

@lilybee well I wouldn’t say I’m an expert Sue...I just must put them in the right place...👍🏼😉

Obviously working! 👍🏼💜

Spotted the first flower on this one - it was hiding under a leaf umbrella. Rain has just stopped in this part of Hampshire but still very windy. Hope your plants are coping with the deluge. Enjoy your day. 🙂

Love the veining on it, still raining in Yorkshire!

Very sensible! That’s lovely Sue 💜

Thanks Keely, it's in its 3rd year now. Spoke too soon re the rain stopping - it's now started again! @Keely

Thanks Rachel, was hoping Blush Noisette might flower at the same time to accompany it but the buds are still tightly shut at the moment! @rachelbrooks

There’s time yet! Lots more to come on this I spec! 👍🏼😊
