Coppervine

Climbing plant type: Vine (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This small vine is a very fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 11 feet (3.4 meters)0. It prefers to grow on specific trees.

It takes 10 months for the slate and bold yellow stems to mature, by which point they have tangled themselves into thick mats with a diameter of 3 cm (1.2 inches) and are smooth and rubbery.

The wide, soft leaves reach up to 3 inches (8 cm) in length. They are either blood red, or copper with purple zig-zags, and have smooth edges.

During late spring, the vine produces clusters of large beige flowers, and during the mid-autumn, after flowering, it produces lots of small fruits.

It is suitable for creating strong, durable textiles
It absorbs an exceptionally large amount of water each day.
