Revision as of 19:54, 24 September 2019

Woody vines (erect, herbaceous perennials in C. recta). Leaf blade 1-2-pinnate; leaflets lobed or unlobed, margins entire or toothed. Inflorescences terminal and/or axillary on current year's stems, cymes or panicles or flowers solitary or paired, bracteate. Flowers bisexual, or unisexual with staminate and pistillate on different plants, not nodding, or ± nodding in yellow-flowered species; perianth rotate; sepals spreading, not connivent, linear, oblong, elliptic, lanceolate, ovate, oblanceolate, or obovate, thin and white or somewhat thickened and yellow; filaments filiform, slender, glabrous or pubescent; staminodes absent from staminate flowers, usually present in pistillate flowers; pistils rudimentary or absent in staminate flowers. Achenes flattened or nearly terete; beak more than 1.5 cm, plumose.

Discussion

Species 50-100 (11 in the flora).

The Asian (Korean) species Clematis serratifolia Rehder, with light yellow sepals and purple stamens, may also escape from cultivation and spread locally.
