Dioscorea Bulbifera

Naturalized
Widely cultivated
Perennial vine

Atrociously invasive, this attractive vine is almost impossible to eradicate once established. Unlike other herbaceous vines, a unique distinguishing characteristic of the air potato plant is that all leaf veins start from the leaf base.

“A supposedly daring insight came up, disguised as a question: Dr. Cole, aren’t humans the most invasive species of all?” – Joe Pitkin
