Comes near to Clematis larlettata EDGEW., and still move to Cleuiatis

The present variety differs from the type in having much smaller 

 flowers, ovate -lanceolate leaves, and not leafy inflorescence. It resembles 

 the type in stamens, achenes, and especially in glabrous sepals turning 

 black when dried. The type has usually larger flowers Avith sepals twice as 

 long as those of the variety, longer, looker and less flowered inflorescence, 

 with longer peduncles. The variety is represented at Kew by a specimen 

 from Hongkong, which is labelled C. itndnala ; but is different from the 

 type of the species mentioned.
