Clematis

While sitting on the deck, I noticed something purple among the cardinal climber blooms. I looked like a moth/butterfly so I immediately checked it out. It was a clematis bud just beginning to open. It seems like the cooler weather brings surprise blooms.

"Sweet Autumn" Clematis

I know fall is on its way when the "Sweet Autumn" Clematis blooms. I enjoy the sweet fragrance it emits throughout the yard.
