Mrs Cholmondeley
She's a beauty I think, this gorgeous lavender blue clematis veined with mauve. There's so much to see in the garden at the moment, but not much work being done apart from watering the greenhouse - this will have to change as Helen has just phoned me to ask about taking part in our village open gardens day and of course I said yes...then panicked.

You would have laughed if you'd seen me hanging washing out this morning wearing my usual scruffy old jeans with a pair of shiny cream stilettoed sling backs...ever so slightly incongruous and not a look I'd generally recommend (Trinny and Susannah would be horrified!), but it's number 2 son's wedding on Friday and I want to make sure my killer heels are slightly less murderous by then!

She is very pretty. Does she grow like wildfire like my mum's did?

I was at a wedding at the weekend and knowing my shoes would hurt like mad I had planned ahead. I slipped a pair of flip flops into my bag for later on when my feet could take no more pain!

I am sure your garden will be a delight on the open gardens day. I could not wear high heels any day of the year ~ wedding or not. Hope you can adjust to yours but enjoy the upcoming wedding!

Hugs ~
Heidi

Your clematis is beautiful - mine is growing like a bean pole but hasn't flowered yet - I'm hoping to train it over the porch roof.
