Black Bindweed
Polygonum convolvulus
|
Finally, I realized that the botanists have had a hard time figuring it out as well. Here is a list of all of the various scientific names (synonyms) that it has been given over the years:
- Polygonum convolvulus L.
- Fallopia convolvulus (L.) A. Löve
- Bilderdykia convolvulus (L.) Dumort
- Fagopyrum convolvulus (L.) H.Gross
- Fagopyrum carinatum Moench
- Helxine convolvulus (L.) Raf.
- Reynoutria convolvulus (L.) Shinners
- Tiniaria convolvulus (L.) Webb & Moq
I don't feel so bad about being puzzled by this plant knowing that everyone else is puzzled as well.
Hopefully these pictures are of the correct plant, but who knows. :-)
