Situation Vacant ...

OMG, innocently stepped out into my garden this evening to feed my rabbits (Honey & Sweetie) and couldn’t get to them for the wall of ‘green growth’ blocking my path ...

Am I sleeping beauty ... did I fall asleep last night and sleep for a hundred years? And if so where’s my prince?

As he didn’t appear, I’ve spent the last half hour pruning my way to the rabbit shed and filling my green bin with the results! The plant which put on the mass of growth I hear you ask? Well, it’s an evergreen clematis (an armandii variety if I recall correctly), the first plant I every bought for my garden.

I pruned it quite strongly last year and this seems to have given it a massive boost of energy this year ... but it looks beautiful when it’s in full flower so I’ll let it off all the hard work it’s causing me at the moment!
