Yellow Clematis seedhead with bokeh


The hairy seedheads of Yellow Clematis are very beautiful, as are the bright yellow flowers. Unfortunately, despite its beauty, it is an invasive species and widespread. This is one of three species of Clematis that occur in the wild in Alberta, the other two being the native Western Clematis and the Purple Clematis/Blue Clematis. This yellow species was introduced from Japan as an ornamental garden plant, but has now spread to natural areas where it chokes out and kills native plants, shrubs and trees. Took this macro shot at Shannon Terrace in Fish Creek Park, on 29 October 2013. Yes, that IS snow in the background!
