Bloodvine

This large creeper is a steady-growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 304 feet (92.7 meters) and growing as high as 138 feet (42.1 meters).

It takes 4 years for the yellow stems to mature, by which point they have tangled themselves into thick mats with a diameter of 4 inches (10 cm) and are rough and gnarled.

The 9 pointed, waxy leaves reach up to 9 inches (23 cm) in length. They are dark grey on the edges and blood red at the center, and have rounded edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces lots of tiny violet flowers.
