One more for the collection

One more for the collection

Was up in Woodies this afternoon and was just browsing around when i noticed they were selling off a range of books at discounted prices, and not being one to pass up on a bargain i picked up a book on Clematis, it is a Collins Garden Guide to Clematis to give it its full title! 48 pages full of photos and information on everything you need to know about Clematis from selecting, supporting and training, maintaining, propagating and also deals with pests and diseases, features what it thinks to be the top 60 best Clematis for your garden all for €2.99 great value information and reference book for these plants, picked mine up in the Coolock branch of Woodies and there were about 5/6 copies left if anybody is interested! Aldi were selling 40 different hybrid varieties of Clematis last Thursday for €7.99 each so they could make a good value combination!

I am a disaster with clematis. I tried them from seed before, got them to come up and then they went a bit mad, so I gave them to the post man in work who minded it for me and got it to come on, but when he gave it back to me it died. It was way too much hard work, I would love one but it will have to be an established one :O)

Great bargain, Chili. Normally we stock the same stuff as Woodies. But we dont have that. Might pop down there later.

Would be a useful book to have, nearest Woodies to me is Cavan so guess it won't get added to my stock as I'm busy all week. No Aldi either nearest Dundalk that's what it is to live out in the sticks although it does have it's advantages.

I bought six clematis in Aldi and they are doing great. Only one died just when it was about to flower. Must get that book in Woodies on Friday. I would be very useful.
