Delcore's Kudzu

Delcore's Kudzu is Pueraria Montana. Its a rare sight in Conneticut, but is present. Here in CT, the Kudzu vine is a low growing ground vine. The vine is non-woody, the whole plant above ground will be killed back the ground each year. The roots still survive, meaning that the vine is a perennial. The plant is not usually able to grow much more than a few inches to a few feet. They flower in Summer. They are small little pink flowers. Soon after, little narrow pods grow in days later. Pods mature in late summer or early fall. In the fall after the pods have ripened, the stem of the plant will die back, and go dormant until next summer.
