I love a good clematis - and here are a couple of beauties from Taylors Clematis Nursery which caught my eye at the show.
Bred by Raymond Evison in Guernsey, Clematis Amethyst Beauty (above) has a rich velvet purple that would compliment cream or yellow roses.
Clematis Shimmer (below), also bred by Raymond Evison, is a deep lilac blue that will literally shimmer in the in the light of dusk - so plant it near your patio for maximum effect.
