kudzu is very fibrous it can be made into paper and it grows so fast we can’t eradicate it in the southern united states. It grows like a foot a day. I worked with a guy in mississippi he cut it back 7 feet every saturday or it would overtake his backyard.

I’ve been fighting kudzu for years that keeps encroaching my property from the neighbor’s yard

by far the fastest growing plant matter I’ve ever seen

the way it can grow underground and then pop up 10 feet away it’s like those whack-a-mole games but far less fun

not to mention it wraps around any thing it finds so it can quickly choke out a tree
