There was a discussion about kudzu here a few days ago. Here are some
pictures for those who have never seen it or what it can do. These
pictures were taken in North Carolina this past Tuesday.

These trees are about 50 feet tall and covered with kudzu.

I saw similar when I drove thru Tennesee...

Pretty impressive and scarier in person!
It covered miles and miles of fields.

And trees.

I'm not positive, but I'm sure I saw it growning between Dunnville and Rock
Point PP in Ontario.

floor with this stuff is sad.

It upsets me and the thought of people wanting to buy
some to plant elsewhere really bugs me.

You probably did see it. The WA state and OR state Departments of
Agriculture have reported it in the area of Vancouver WA along the
border between Washington and Oregon. It is actually a temperate
climate plant, it goes gcrazy in the southern US because it now hasa
year round growing season.

Cheers!

In cleaning brush from around my house I have cut a Kudzu vine that
was 2" in diameter. Next move is to remove the three trees that it
killed.

And now I found out that you can sell it. Always a day late and a
dollar short.

There are a ton of herbal and food products made out of it...
Capsules, powders, jellies, etc. Do a search for Kudzu on ebay.
