Dwarf Clover

The Clematis Hyoseroides is a common, modest plant and can be found in dark and wet places. It blooms twice a year, for 2 weeks. It has wide, elliptic leaves, which are usually yellow-green. It also grows large flowers, which can be light bronze, dark red and dark brown. These plants grow separated by a fair distance from each other, but it's no trouble to control and maintain their growth. They can be dried and used in cooking. As a defense mechanism the Clematis Hyoseroides grows thick thorns. They rely on water currents to carry their seeds away to reproduce. Once pollinated, they grow fairly large, delicious nuts.
