it is a vine that grows crazy in America (mostly Georgia) and was brought here to stop erosion. if u have any of it in your yard take it out immediately or it will take over everything.
Kudzu is a very invasive vine that can destroy even the tallest of trees, you would not want it growing in your backyard of you have invested any money in it. It suffocates the plants and moves out and up in a very linear pattern.
I wish you would have told me what your interest is, so I could offer some assistance in dealing with this horrible species.
The Japanese brought this plant over during the Worlds fair in New York in the early 1900's.It was sold to keep erosion down. Although it dies down in the winter, here in Georgia it is killing the trees. I read somewhere that you can actually watch it grow. This is not a plant anyone needs to have on their property. If you do have it spray it with round up until it is completely dead. This is the deadliest plant to have in our environment. I don't understand why the state of Georgia has not tried to eradicate it, I guess the EPA in Ga. aren't to bright.
