Blue Ripper

This short bine is a very fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 11 feet (3.4 meters) and growing as high as 112 feet (34.1 meters).

It takes 11 months for the florescent blue stems to mature, by which point they often have a diameter of 3 cm (1.2 inches) and are rough and fibrous.

The thin, waxy leaves reach up to 6 inches (15 cm) in length. They are silver with deep red tips, and have ripped edges.
