Cat’s Claw Creeper(Scientific - Macfadyena Unguis-Cati ) is a
rampant climber with stems that eventually become very robust and woody in
nature. Its oppositely arranged leaves consist of two leaflets and a
distinctive three-clawed tendril. Showy yellow flowers coupled with its
climbing habit made the fast-growing creeper ideal as a hedging plant or
natural screen for unsightly walls and buildings. The plants' ability to
'climb' is facilitated by its distinctive leaves which consist of two leaflets
and a modified three-forked tendril. Each tendril is tipped with a tiny
hardened hook which can attach to most surfaces enabling the vine to grow up
walls, tree trunks and over other vegetation. It is these tendrils that
resemble claws and the feature from which the plant draws its name.
