My Papez 1020 Vine Description


The vine has a slightly flattened top but other wise is a normal shape.  On the other hand the leaf junctions are not normal.  "Some" have two leaves, two tendrils and one of what should be a side vine grows straight up in the air.  Other joints are normal and I remove the little vines growing straight up on the strange junctions.  My thinking as to what is a flat or ribbon vine looks like a heavy piece of ribbon up to 6 or 8" wide and often twists and turns.
