Common Moonseed
Menispermum canadense
|
Common Moonseed is easy to identify. It's a twining viney plant with unique looking leaves. Maybe this is why I never bothered to take a close look at the seeds. So, here's a link to a picture of the seeds, which look a bit like a crescent moon. It strikes me as odd that the common name would refer to a part of the plant which is rarely encountered. I could see the taxonomists doing that, but not normal people! :-)
