Kudzu is climbing, coiling, and trailing vine native to southern Japan and south east China. Where it occurs as an invasive species, it is considered a noxious weed that climbs over trees or shrubs and grows at the rate of a foot a day.
It kills any flora it comes in to contact with, blocking access to light, growing over it and creating shading with its leaves - so denying its competition the ability to photosynthesize. It now covers 7 million acres of the US Deep South and is continually advancing. This is the day of the Kudzu.
