Burgundy Climber

This small vine is a fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 12 feet (3.7 meters) and growing as high as 558 feet (170.1 meters).

It takes 4 months for the burgundy stems to mature, by which point they often have a diameter of 1 cm (0.4 inches) and are tough and woody.

The long, narrow, leathery leaves reach up to 6 inches (15 cm) in length. They are drab purple and azure, and have smooth edges.
