Kudzu is a vine, native to SE Asia. These vines can grow up to 30 cm (12 in) per day resulting in them taking over large areas and causing much damage. They were activily planted in many areas up until 1953 when they were placed on the US Noxious Weed List. They are now naturalized in most of the SE, as far west as Texas, and up the East Coast into Maine. It can also be found in Oregon, Washington and Hawaii. This plant is also causing problems in Austrailia.
The plant will do well in areas where the temperatures rarely drop below -15
