This has crept along the fence, right up to the house, and these are some of the last blooms to come out. I thought they were rather nice - and I also wanted to show off my new camera.  This central bloom is nestling in the leaves of Magnolia Stella. |

Well, fancy that! Thank you, Michael - we have one of those in our garden, and I didn't know what it was and kept meaning to look it up. That's it exactly, though!

Mine has many hundreds of blooms on it every year (I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't have more than a 1,000 blooms this year). It starts to bloom where it is planted, then climbs up the Winter flower honeysuckle near it, then all along the fence till it reaches the house - and finally sprawls all over the fence so that the people parking cars outside get a good view of it.
All I do (rather PMR does) is to cut it all down every year in the last autumn.
We really take no trouble over it - we just tidy it up.
It's - to use a gardening phrase - 'a go-er.'

We have one too, and we have a passion flower creeping through it...we're waiting for the PF to start flowering right now.
