THE AUTHOR HAS A SHORT PIECE ON VARIOUS VARIETIES OF CLEMATIS USUALLY ALONG WITH A PICTURE. I FAULT THE BOOK FOR MISSING PICTURES OF A VARIETY. THE PHOTOS ARE VIRTUALLY INDISTINGUISHAB LE BETWEEN VARIETIES OF THE SAME COLOR. THE PHOTOS ARE "MUDDY" AND UNATTRACTIVE. THE DESCRIPTIONS ARE ALSO INDISTINUISHABLE AS A WHOLE. I WANTED TO COME AWAY FROM THIS BOOK KNOWING THE BEST VARIETIES TO BUY BUT I DIDN'T.
