KARDYNAL WYSZNSKI - THE CLEMATIS HAS GROWN TOO HIGH AT THE MAIL BOX - HAD MY THINGS TO TRIM HIM BACK BEFORE HE BEGAN ALL HIS BUD-OPENING BUT THE KARDYNAL HAD OTHER THOUGHTS - SO, WILL TAKE SMALL INSTRUMENTS OUT TO TRIM - THEN WILL GIVE A GOOD TRIM IF HE SLOWS DOWN !

SINCE THE CLEMATIS WAS TAKING OVER THE MAILBOX AND THE SUPPORT - AGAIN FIGURED I WOULD TRIM KARDYNAL WYSZNSKI A BIT - HAD ALL MY GEAR TOGETHER - BUT, WHEN I GOT STARTED - IT WAS BLOOMING - ONLY ONE - BUT THIS IS THE LATEST IT HAS BLOOMED - JUST DID A BIT SO WE WOULD STILL GET - OUR JUNK MAIL - TALKED TO HIM, THE LADYBUG AND NUMNEROUS BEES - DECIDED THE TRIMMING WAS DONE. 1PiP

Clematis -- Kardynal Wyszynski Grows near the mailbox - Last year, a Mockingbird nest was built behind the leaves - So far, no Mockingbird activity - But, the Kardynal has a multitude of buds - Must keep winding the vine away from the mailbox - Or no mail ! That might not be a bad idea - since most of it is Junk Mail - Need to check with nextdoor neighbor - She took a cutting in hopes she can get it to bloom in her yard - Will let y'all know. Have a beautiful day - Wherever you call home . 1 PiP

Ms Clementine is guardian of mailbox .. When we first moved here .. All that was on that small trellis .. Were dried up somethings . Brown leaves that had seen better days .. . So, asked Pam J if I should pull it up .. ''No .. see what it will be.. '' And the following year, this leafed out and bloomed ! It is so nice when somebody says ...NO .. And this beauty is why .. Clematis Kardynal Wyszynski is her 'proper name' .. Many, many thanks SAB .. Pam has save me many times ! © All Rights Reserved
