This image is created from time-lapse photographs of a Clematis montana made over a period of 81 hours as it flowered.
The mountain clematis is a vigorous deciduous ornamental climber that flowers for about four weeks in late spring. The word Clematis comes from the Greek word “klema,” which means twig or branch. The clematis has symbolic meanings associated with mental prowess and symbolises ingenuity or artifice, perhaps due to its seemingly clever abilities to climb around trellises and walls.
