I think I found it! http://clematisviorna.info/clematis_pitcheri.html clematis ochroleuca is similar but not a vine.

I think the other photo you posted was the flower that made these fruits. Not all Clematis flowers are super-showy. Let me see what I can find for an ID on that flower.

How in the world did I miss such a lovely flower then. And the mystery remains what is thid that was seemingly in the vine? http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6032491

I would say clematis too from the leaves.

I've added examples of the leaves on this vine. They are rather sparse.

I can get them tomorrow, ceherzog. But I spotted this flower on the same area on the same type of vine: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6032491

got anymore shots with foliage?

It really does, Kristal, but I don't recall those flowers in this garden (one that I see a few times a week).

That looks like a head of Clematis fruits. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clematis
