Clematis paniculata Gmelin.
Common names / Maori names: White clematis, Bridal Veil, Bush clematis, Puawhananga, Piki-kai-arero
Distinguishing features: Large white sepals (5–10 cm) surround a cluster of yellow stamens topped with pinkish-red anthers. Female flowers similar but smaller. It is a large, fast-growing vine with thick stems at the base which climb up to 15 m into the trees. The abundant flowers are often lost in the tree tops, or found cascading over indigenous shrubs. The flowers have a sweet smell, though not as strong as the other species. The dark-green foliage has shiny compound leaves bearing three leaflets at the end of long twining petioles. By December, the female flowers are replaced with silvery seed heads consisting of persistent plumose styles 3–5 cm long. This is an evergreen species.
