Botany picture #250: Aristolochia clematitis


Aristolochia clematitis (Aristolochiaceae), the only member of its genus in Germany, 2008. I rather like this genus with its weird flowers, but unfortunately I very rarely see them in the wild. It took me years before I ran into this one in Europe, and otherwise I have only seen the odd one or two species in South America. There are certainly none near where I live now.
