Yellow Clematis / Clematis tangutica

09 Sep 2011 204
This beautiful, vibrant yellow flower gives a false impression of this plant. Despite its beauty, it is one of the worst invasive weeds, wrapping itself around other plants and even Spruce trees, killing everything in its path. The silver hairs of the seedheads are so beautiful, too. It has taken over huge areas of our natural parks in the city, including the Erlton/Roxboro Natural Area, where this photo was taken.
