Notes:
This vine seems very toxic. When I cut it with the lawn mower my eyes start burning and sinuses beome inflamed. Its like being exposed to tear gas.

I think you have a japanese clematis. Possibly Sweet Autumn Bower. http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/pdffiles/AG/AG31500.pdf
June 17th, 2012 at 10:01 pmIt is reported that all parts of the plant are poisonious if ingested. I’ve suffered no ill affects from handling the plant or working around it. I have never mowed it but would quess the dust would be heavy in certain conditions. Proceed with caution would be my recommendation.
