Style: Clematis is versatile climber

Clematis is one of the most popular flowering vines, and no wonder — this versatile plant can be grown on walls, pergolas, in containers or left to ramble through trees and shrubs, writes Janet B. Carson in Style.

There are more than 600 named varieties of clematis and many more seedlings.

Flower colors range from pinks to purples, blues, reds and whites and even a few yellows, with multicolored options as well.

With so many clematis plants to choose from, it is hard to know what to pick.

See Saturday’s Democrat-Gazette for Carson’s tips for finding the right clematis for your garden.
