Lilac Creeper

This enormous creeper is a very slow growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 2,128 feet (648.6 meters) and growing as high as 483 feet (147.2 meters). It prefers to grow on rock formations.

It takes 39 years for the gray stems to mature, by which point they often have a diameter of 2.3 feet (69 cm) and are tough and woody.

The wide, crispy leaves reach up to 2.4 feet (74 cm) in length. They are either purple or lilac, with pink lines, and have wavy edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces many clusters of colossal light yellow flowers, and during the late autumn, after flowering, it produces a few large berries.
