Turquoise Vine

This small vine is a very fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 23 feet (7.0 meters)0.

It takes 5 months for the lime green stems to mature, by which point they have often fused together into ropes with a diameter of 2 cm (0.8 inches) and are rough and fibrous.

The perforated, covered in fine hairs leaves reach up to 3 inches (8 cm) in length. They are either aquamarine, or orange with turquoise zig-zags, and have smooth edges.

During late spring, the vine produces many average violet flowers, and during the early winter, after flowering, it produces lots of large seed pods.
