Help!, can you identify this vine?
Submitted by K Nease on Thu, 10/09/2008 - 10:09I discovered a woodland vine that seems agressive. The floor tiles in the attached images are 6" so that you can tell the scale of the plant. It has three leaves and seed pods that resemble smaller versions of those on a redbud. Do you know what this vine is? What should we do about it? It is vining over and covering up the ground and all of the understory plants wherever it shows up.
Interesting plant to identify
Submitted by lile001 on Fri, 10/10/2008 - 21:43This strange looking plant was blooming in late july and August. It suffered all kinds of abuse including being run over by a utility truck and chomping by caterpillars, who ate the flowers up before they could seed. I wanted to identify it all summer, but could not find anything close in the books I have. Anybody hazard a guess?
