    There's a few of these vines just popping up out of the ground...no woody stem like most clematis

    It's the new stem of a clematis. that's how they grow. :)
    The original plant will be nearby, and it may have failed, but that's the advantage of the larger flowered ones - they produce new shoots from below ground, even if they've suffered from wilt, for example, or just been knocked back by slugs or severe weather - or both in my garden!
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Young shoots of clematis are not woody. They get woody later on. Agree with @Pete.8 for clematis.

    Thankyou all! I can't wait to see what it looks like when it blooms! I have planted so much in my garden over the years I've forgotten what's what!
