IT HAS GOTTEN LOOSE.
AND IT KILLS EVERYTHING IT CLIMBS UPON.
Everything!!
It is a non native invasive species that has taken over thousands of acres of land.
IN my humble opinion....I would not try it.
Pretty flowers ...generous seeder ........Disaster
Kudzu is not welcome here in the Miami and Ohio river valleys.

I'm pretty sure it's too dry here for kudzu to become invasive. 15 inches of rain on average a year in my area. I don't plan on planting any perennial climbers, I'm already having to deal with
creeping fig (Ficus pumila). Its roots are choking out my Namwah and slowing its growth, it choked out one of my Raja Puris to the point where I had to remove it, and I'm not going to let it touch any of my other plants.
