Dioscorea villosa, Wild Yam, pistillate inflorescences in bud 2, Howard County, MD, HeLoMetz

Wild Yam, Dioscorea villosa, one of the most architecturally balanced and pleasing vines that you can grow. But the tiny flowers and lack of color would seem to indicate that this might be a fly pollinated plant. Specimens and photographs by Helen Lowe Metzman
