September 6, 2019 – Autumn Clematis

September brings a lovely treat, as the air is filled with the scent of sweet Autumn Clematis, Clematis paniculata. Courtyard Garden 10 on the Medford Campus is alive with the fragrance and beauty of this prolific bloomer. Small, white flowers emerge to display themselves and, as fall approaches, the flowers become a silvery mass of fluffy seed heads. This vine is quite at home located on the pergola in this garden.
