Bronze vine

This small vine is a very fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 24 feet (7.3 meters) and growing as high as 321 feet (97.8 meters). It prefers to grow on man-made objects.

It takes 3 months for the silver stems to mature, by which point they sometimes have a diameter of 3 cm (1.2 inches) and are rough and prickly.

The fan-like, crispy leaves reach up to 4 inches (10 cm) in length. They are orange and bronze, and have serrated edges.

During late spring, the vine produces dozens of small sky blue flowers, and during the mid-autumn, after flowering, it produces lots of tiny seed pods.
