This needs more sun than I think we can give it. It popped up in April and I’m crossing my fingers. When I bought this I didn’t realize it wasn’t a vine. It’s actually an upright variety of clematis! We may not get the full black as described on the nursery tag, but I like the ruddy green color I’m seeing so far.

Update: not enough sun! Gave it away to a friend with a much sunnier lot!
