Wavy Creeper

This short creeper is a fast growing plant, with the largest known specimen reaching a length of 19 feet (5.8 meters) and growing as high as 170 feet (51.8 meters).

It takes 3 months for the brown stems to mature, by which point they can reach a diameter of 2 cm (0.8 inches) and are flat and wavy.

The slender, pointed, clammy leaves reach up to 6 inches (15 cm) in length. They are found in bronze, blood red and caramel varieties, and have wavy edges.

During late spring, the creeper produces handfuls of small orange flowers, and during the late summer, after flowering, it produces a few large seed pods.
