Blue Clematis

Blue Clematis

Tuesday 2nd June 2015

I had been meaning to take a photograph of our blue clematis for a few days now. I have never seen so many huge flowers, it was almost sagging with the weight of them. Sadly, I left it too late. After last night's high winds, it looked pretty sick today. A lot of the petals were just hanging down, but there was one flower that was open. I noticed that the stamens instead of being open to the insect world, were closed up in a tight ball. Was this their protection from the unseasonal cold?
