September 2017

By Curt Kipp — Posted September 13, 2017

Our September cover feature is on awe-inspiring vines, but there’s lots more to read about in the newest issue of Digger.

On the cover: Topping out at about 6 feet, Clematis ‘Caroline’ is perfectly suited for smaller settings, such as urban patios. Its flowers are pale pink with a darker central bar on the sepals. Photo Courtesy of Greenspire.

Eye-catching new varieties of Clematis, Passiflora and evergreen Hydrangea are in high demand. We look at the impact on gardeners, growers and retailers. Download a PDF of this article
