Remember the nice views

OK, so I still have some work to do behind the maple in the back yard.  Behind the alstromaria I found other monsters lurking, including a miniature version of the dreaded convolvulus. But some parts of the garden are doing things that I like. On the fence between us and the hospital, where the honeysuckle was starting to look a little pooped, the clematis jackmanii is coming into bloom. Ain't it grand, with the hebe (sp?) accompanying it below?

Yeah, it's very nice, isn't it? I keep trying to pull strands of the honeysuckle along the fence toward the clematis as well, to fill in that space. But it seems to prefer leaning into the cedar hedge.
