Clematis flammula L.Fragrant Virgin's Bower, Fragnant Clematis, DE: Brennende Waldrebe, Mandel-WaldrebeSI: diei srobotDat.: June 20. 2010Lat.: 44.37116 Long.: 14.7791Code: Bot_431/2010_IMG0857Habitat: Semi ruderal ground near houses and gardens of a village; on stony walls; calcareous, skeletal ground; almost flat terrain; full sun, dry place; elevation 35 m (115 feet); average precipitations ~ 900 mm/year, average temperature 12-14 deg C, Sub-Mediterranean phytogeographical region. Substratum: stony soil.Place: East part of village Olib; island Olib, Kvarner bay, Adriatic Sea, Croatia EC.Comment: Clematis flammula is one of my favorites among Mediterranean plants. It is a poisonous woody vine climbing sometimes up to a few meters high and to some extent visually similar to well-known and very common old man's beard (Clematis vitalba). But Clematis flammula flowers incomparably more abundantly. If it has no other plants or stony walls to climb on, it will climb on itself, forming a large 'bushes' fully covered by white flowers when in bloom. The plant is spreading around a wonderful, sweet smell on almonds, which gorgeously blends with, memorable by itself, 'Mediterranean' scent of sea-water, salt and other Mediterranean plants full of pungent aromatic oils. I have had a great luck to visit many other ocean and sea shores of four continents of this world, but, to my experience, nothing can compare to this experience of Mediterranean during late spring time, when everything it thriving vigorously, before dog days and flood of tourists makes the region much less attractive.Clematis flammula is rare in Slovenia. One can find it only in the warmest (during summer) valley of the country in Trako-Komenski Karst region near Brestovica village in southwest Slovenia. Another place where it grows is known on just the opposite side of the country in east Slovenia near town Ptuj (Ref. 5). On Adriatic Sea islands the plant is common. Ref.:(1) A.
