Copper Creeper

Climbing plant type: Creeper (Grows along the ground or other low surfaces.)

This huge creeper is a very slow growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 3,195 feet (973.8 meters) and growing as high as 477 feet (145.4 meters). It prefers to grow on specific trees.

It takes 5 years for the copper stems to mature, by which point they have tangled themselves into thick mats with a diameter of 4.5 feet (1.4 meters) and are rough and fibrous.

The long, tapering, sticky leaves reach up to 2.0 feet (61 cm) in length. They are a shade of gray-green and lime green that gradient shifts to aquamarine at the top, and have tattered edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces lots of tiny slate flowers, and during the late summer, after flowering, it produces copious amounts of large seed pods.

It is very delicate and is easy to kill.
The leaves are very toxic, and very spicy.
