    new to the forum and new to gardening, I've been trying to ID these 2 plants but can't find their names. I would like to look up how to care for them and how to propogate the vine-like one. The shrub with the tiny white flowers is about 2.5 feet tall. The vine is quite bushy and is growing on a fence. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    First one resembles poison ivy.

    Not poison ivy -- seems to have opposite leaves though it isn't particularly clear. Ranunculaceae? (Clematis?)

    I'm pretty sure the first one is a clematis. Does it have any flowers on it at all?

    Thanks, I've been looking over clematis photos and I think that could be it.

    no flowers whatsover when we moved in in mid-July, but I didn't see it in the springtime would the flowers have been gone by mid-July?
