Birthwort / Aristolochia clematitis
A large, fast-growing shrub vine, capable of rising to a height of 12 m. The shoots are bare, green, and quite flexible.
The foliage of this aristolochia looks truly stunning: large, spectacular, perfectly heart-shaped leaves with a diameter of up to 30 cm form a very beautiful tiled crown pattern, bringing ornamental effects to the garden. The light green, bright surface is combined with a paler reverse side. The leaves, like all kirkazons, sit on long petioles, up to 6-7 cm.
The flowers stand out not only because they are pollinated by flies. Solitary, axillary, developing in the shape of a v-shaped tube, they reach only 3 cm in length and are crowned with a surprisingly spectacular disc-shaped purple-brown limb. After pollination, the flowers close and droop.
After flowering of this vine, hexagonal boxes are tied - a fruit up to 8 cm long.
Birthwort is no less useful than other widely known medicinal plants. It would be useful to pay attention to it and take it into service in the fight against diseases, especially gynecological ones.
The healing properties are manifested by anti-inflammatory, diaphoretic, diuretic, analgesic and wound-healing effects.
The entire human body experiences the tonic effect of birthwort. The medicinal properties of the plant are as follows: lowers blood pressure, has a choleretic and diuretic effect, and improves kidney function.
Large-leaved birthwort forms a large green mass, so it needs solid support. Can be planted near old trees, living or dry. Intertwining their trunks and branches, it forms a fabulous crown. After planting in a permanent place, it takes two years for the plant to take root and begin strong growth.
At this time, pruning is necessary to ensure good branching. Later, after two years, pruning is no longer necessary, and if it becomes necessary due to strong growth, it can be done without fear, because After severe pruning it grows back very well. Fast-growing birthwort requires annual fertilization and intensive watering, especially in hot summers.
Well suited for the formation of coverings, pergolas, gazebos, and high fences. Looks great on posts, columns or grazing old trees. Can be used as a ground cover plant. Due to its large mass, it requires solid supports, e.g. such as bars, chains or ropes. For urban landscaping.
