Hello,just joined had a quick look around.
I'm a keen gardener, my garden is medium sized, my main interest is clematis I don't grow any large flowered ones. I grow a lot from seed and cuttings. I also enjoy growing hardy tropical's which I'm just getting in to.
I'm a member of the British Clematis Society, and my local gardening clubs.

Welcome to the forum iant. I have taken cuttings of Clematis and grown from seed. You seem to be very interested in Clematis as I notice you are a member of the Clematis Society and gardening clubs. You will be able to keep us right.

	I'll get around to it eventually

You'll be a great asset - we all grow Clematis but sometimes we need 'expert' advice!
