MORE SUMMER WHITES

Clematis montana "Peveril"
Growing on Shaw Island,
San Juan Archipelago, WA.,
USDA Zone: 8b.
 for this photograph taken 
7 June 2023. 

She casts slight fragrance and
stretches the blooming season
of the species Clematis montana.
Soon she will prepare a bounty
of ripe seeds.
Worth a try after reading

"Summer is a promissory note signed in June,

it's long days spent and gone

before you know it, and due 

to be repaid next January.
