Types of Argyreia

Elephant creeper

Elephant creeper (Argyreia nervosa) is a tropical Asian climbing vine that ambles along the ground and up whatever tree it finds. This species can be invasive and is considered a noxious weed in some non-native areas. It is so aggressive it has taken over a large chunk of rainforest in Australia, making native plants struggle to survive.
