I believe the answer is:

tendril

(Other definitions for tendril that I've seen before include "Slender structure on some twining plants" , "Climbing plant's gripper" , "A creeper, or a curl of hair" , "Part of plant that clings for support" , "Plant's curling support" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
