Crimson Vine

Climbing plant type: Vine (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This small vine is a quick growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 16 feet (4.9 meters) and growing as high as 111 feet (33.8 meters).

It takes 9 months for the pink-red stems to mature, by which point they have tangled themselves into thick mats with a diameter of 1 cm (0.4 inches) and are smooth and waxy.

The pleated, crispy leaves reach up to 4 inches (10 cm) in length. They are a shade of emerald that gradient shifts to peach at the top, and have jagged edges.

During late spring, the vine produces a handful of average intense red flowers, and during the mid-autumn, after flowering, it produces plenty of large berries.

The leaves are bland but very healthy.
All of it is said to be part of one single, massive plant.
It is suitable for making baskets and the like
It commonly grows in large patches.
