Emerging in my garden after a very long winter... this perennial was planted last year...
It can be used as a cut flower- typically comes in Blue, Lavender, Pink, White, even Red... and some flowers are bi-color...
This Double Variety... opens up further to reveal a central core of anthers... it is actually a relative of the Ranunculus...
Common name is "traveler's joy", "virgin's bower" "old man's beard"... "leather flower" or "vase vine"...
P.S. Whatever your common name... I call this garden beauty- Clematis!
