Golden Silk Vine

This enormous vine is a slow growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 3,321 feet (1,012.2 meters) and growing as high as 519 feet (158.2 meters).

It takes 32 years for the gray stems to mature, by which point they often have a diameter of 1.4 feet (43 cm) and are smooth and rubbery.

The sickle shaped, crispy leaves reach up to 2.3 feet (71 cm) in length. They are either cream, or gold with azure patches, and have ripped edges.
