The Clematis

On 15 March every year since 2007 (save, I forgot last year) I've taken a shot of the clematis plant in our garden.  The others are in this flickr post.  It's not to make any major point, or to plot any trend - there are too many variables, not least when, and by how much, it was cut back before Christmas.  Although, having said that, it does seem to react to the type of winter we've had - the colder years seem to have held it back a bit.  It's just a moderately interesting little project.  To me.
