Another Trip to the Yard
 

Thought I'd share some pics to the "yard" yesterday.

Here nature is taking over. Yep, there is a car under each mound.

Chuck,
I keep hoping that I'll find a split bumper car. I do find another 70 Camaro every trip. The whole underside is GONE on that 70 pictured above. Found a 72 Z27, maybe there's an awaiting L78 somewhere in the bushes.

My money is on Kudzoo! I saw an abandoned barn in South Carolina
that got totally covered in three years. Looks just like
the car mounds, just a lot bigger. That stuff is out of
control. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/shocked.gif

BTW, if you're going to go in that stuff, do it in the winter
before the bees get busy. Hate to see you get attacked
while pulling that stuff off of a car. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Didnt I see this stuff in "War of the Worlds"?

Not sure Steve, but I know it stared in Jumanji https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smirk.gif

Re: Another Trip to the Yard
 

That stuff is Kudzu. Actually it is very intersting stuff. It can grow over 12 inches a day. I have several photos of cars, and old farmhouses that have been swallowed up by that stuff .

Kudzu - Pueraria montana var. lobata


Kudzu occurs statewide (NC) and is on the The Nature Conservancy's Worst Invasives List for the Piedmont, Sandhills, and Coastal Plain.



Kudzu is a fast-growing, vigorous, drought-tolerant deciduous climbing vine with large, distinctive, three-lobed leaves and hairy stems. Its flowers are pea-like, purple and fragrant. Its fruit is a dark brown pod. The tap root may be 6 feet or longer, 7 inches or more in diameter, and weigh 400 pounds. As many as 30 vines may grow from a single root crown. Kudzu spreads from runners and rhizomes and vines that root at the nodes. Spread by seed is also reported.



A serious invader of seminatural or natural habitat. Kudzu forms large impenetrable masses, growing over woody vegetation and completely engulfing unwooded areas. Kudzu kills trees by completely shutting out light, girdling woody stems and tree trunks, breaking branches or uprooting entire trees and shrubs from the sheer weight.


I was going to suggest Napalm to get rid of it, but thats not something you should type into your web browser. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif
