Brewster Rogerson giving a talk on “Early Masters of Clematis Hybridizing” at the recent “A Celebration of Clematis” held at Joy Creek Nursery.
For the fifth year Joy Creek Nursery has hosted a “Celebration of Clematis” co-hosted by the Friends of the Rogerson Clematis Collection (and formerly by the Pacific Northwest Clematis Society).
This year’s focus was the Integrifolia Group of herbaceous perennial clematis and the event, held on June 2 & 3 was timed to show off these plants as they come into their first glorious wave of bloom. In addition to workshops on Saturday and Sunday, the big draw for the public is always the long tables of clematis flower specimens brought by society members, FRCC and Joy Creek.
The following is the list of clematis flowers on display, and the contributor(s). All plant names conform to the International Clematis Register and Checklist and its supplements.
