Ton
The flowers look attractive, much different to the flowers of Confusa. The 4 sepals (tepals?) hang apart divided near the top - Confusa flowers recurve slightly at the tips. Also this plant has a lot of purple in the stems and seems to have it in the sepals (although this may be emphasised by the camera and the light). It would be interesting to see the stamens and how far they hang down. Are they yellow?
I have some CC6247 and they have the purple colouring in stem and leaf but mine have not produced any flower buds this year.

Hi
 
I have 10 seedlings of 6247, they are still small so would not expect them to flower until next year. Something to look forward to.
 
Cheers

And the colour interests me also .
Best  Regards

Hi Ton,
 
I am interested in the leaf arrangement on your plants, my young plants only have ternate leaves all alternate on the leaf stalks.
 
I would expect this to change next year, it would apear that the leaf formation on your plant is more like C. connata pseudo-connata, can you confirm? Have you sent pictures to Chris Chadwell? It may be worthwhile sending pictures to Chris Grey Wilson, Roy Lancaster and Brian Mathew. I have been in touch with Chris earlier about locations of plants, unfortunately he did not collect this one, so only knows that it was from Nepal.
 
If you like I could send pictures to these people who may be able to help with identification.
 
Have you tried the plants outside yet? My plants were outsude during the summer but have been brought into the cold greenhouse for the winter.
 
Ron,
 
 I have spare plants if you would like one, but no spare seed.
I get my seed from a Clematis seed share from Chris Chadwell.
 
Best wishes

For those interested; Chris Chadwell, offers a Clematis seed share, for which I get a number of seed packets in a year, this will vary according to the number of collections in that year. The amount paid lasts for about two or three years and is based on the number of packets supplied. This helps fund his expeditions. In the few years that I have been subscribing I have had seed from Tibet, Northern India and Nepal. The seed just comes with a collection number and a brief description of the altitude and the area of collection, but some seed is collected by Til Jung, this seed may not be clearly defined as to where it was collected. Most of the seed is viable and the plants from it are identifiable, but there are some plants that after a few years of growing them I am still not sure what they are. If interested it is best to write to Chris Chadwell, at 81 Parlaunt Road, Slough, Berks, SL3 8BE.
Best wishes

Like Roy I also bought a clematis share from Chris Chadwell last year for about £30. I received a number of packets of seeds collected in Nepal, I think maybe 10 or so, so far. I had success with germination rates from about about 5 of the packets, but it is always hit and miss with wild collected seed, there are so many factors which may determine germination. I am very pleased with what I got and think £30 is a real bargain for what you get - some really interesting and unusual plants. Also think how much would it cost to go to Nepal to collect them yourself (let alone be able to find the plants). For those who don't know, the "CC" in the collection number stands for Chris Chadwell

Thanks Roy and Aidan ,for the information , I will contact Chris and see from there.
On hind sight , I should  have collected seeds when I was in the area
I would have had some interesting plants by now . In those days I would not have even thought of growing Clematis , I was still in my late teens or early twenties , those where the days  ??? Any way thanks again.
Best Regards

I lived in Leeds until 68 , I could just about grow any thing in the soil there
the best thing I found for improving the soil texture was Shoddy (sheep wool combings), you should be able to get it from the people who grow Rhubarb

Hi Roy and Aidan.
Thanks for the information on Chris Chadwell . He was kind enough to sort out
some seeds for me , I think I was the end of the Que , and a bit late in applying for
a share , but am most pleased with the results . They were numbered  CC6677 which seven have germinated , CC6678 had six germinated , and CC6679 only one has survived ,  they all look strong plants but I am not tempting fate
Both thanks again
Ron.C
