BUT I do recall in this fever dream that I got some advice about the clematis pitcheri. I need to propagate it and not rely on it surviving the winter.

It said to add branches so I added some twigs that I hadn't added to the pile and low and behold with the constant moisture the twigs have new growth and even a flower on one, I like plants I should've seen this coming.

So anyway gonna change out the twigs soon and continue to grow these ones.
