I haven’t done a new post on this blog for months. I am still busy with all my activities, the writing and art, the cats and kittens, and the gardening. I just don’t feel we live in safe times to put family information online, because it may be copied and misused, so the focus I started with is on hold for awhile.

Meanwhile, here’s a gorgeous clematis coming into her own this spring. Her name is Patricia Ann Fretwell. I don’t think she’s an easy one to find, but as you can see, the flowers are like dahlias on a vine, and truly as big, about four inches across.

More garden news to come! I’ll be trying to do a post once a week, at least.
