Bloodvine

This small creeper is a very fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 7 feet (2.1 meters) and growing as high as 349 feet (106.4 meters). It prefers to grow on specific trees.

It takes 4 months for the blood red stems to mature, by which point they have often fused together into ropes with a diameter of 2 cm (0.8 inches) and are smooth and rubbery.

The slender, pointed, waxy leaves reach up to 4 inches (10 cm) in length. They are cream on the edges and turquoise at the center, and have toothed edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces dozens of small lilac flowers.
