Flowers of the Palu di leche
Rubber vine that strangles and kills trees. It has very thin roots that spread underground ( like mushroom roots ). A scary plant! The vine takes the shape and size of the plant it is killing. This rubber vine was brought to the island with hopes to win rubber. The plan did not work out well. The vine is popping up everywhere and it is very hard to unroot it.
