Clematis ligusticifolia * Creek Clematis, Virgin's Bower, Western Clematis

Clematis ligusticifolia blooms from late Spring through to Fall.  The Creek Clematis can be found throughout the state at lower elevations.    Creek clematis grows up to 20' or more up into trees.  You can often see the flowers of the Creek Clematis draped over shrubs or trailing out of the trees in the Summer.    I like the white poppy-like flowers as well as the feather duster seeds.  Clematis ligusticifolia was use medicinally.  The roots are generally found growing in the shade, the top of Clematis ligusticifolia is generally in the sun.  Clematis ligusticifolia can be found growing in moist or dry soils.
