Field Notes

Description:

Exuberant vine considered a pest in some parts of the Southeast, where it can grow quickly in large numbers, up and over fences and trees. This plant was at the edge of the forest near a small pond. But they're hardy and can thrive in difficult circumstances, too. Also called Orange Trumpet.
