Appearance
"Clemaatis flammula" grows in a tangled mass that is heavily sprinkled with flowers throughout the warmer months. It is popular with gardeners as a decoration along fences and trellises, or as ground cover. If it has no other plants or structures to climb on, it will climb on itself, forming a large, densely tangled bush. The plant sends out many shoots and can reach over five metres in height.
Status
In some areas, this species has become a nuisance after its introduction. It is a weed outside of gardens and landscaped areas.
Habitat
"Clematis flammula" var. "maritima" is a hardier variety that is adapted to sand dunes. It is currently being studied as an agent of soil stabilization on eroded sandy beaches.References:
