Convolvulus Sepium Subsp. Silvaticus

Convolvulus sepium subsp. silvaticus is a lesser-known yet fascinating member of the bindweed family. This subspecies thrives in woodland and shaded areas, often carpeting the forest floor with its delicate, funnel-shaped flowers. Its leaves are heart-shaped and covered in fine hairs, giving it a unique texture. The plant is known for its resilience, able to survive in poor soil conditions and withstand partial shade. Despite its modest appearance, it plays an important role in supporting local insect populations and adding biodiversity to its habitat.
