Cobweb canyons of kudzu flourish as summer flees and fall is freed. Drooping drapes of giant leaves close windows to the past, a temptation for imaginations to run wild. Lengthy tendrils travel to the light, driven by hormones kept out of sight. The viewer finds fascination in fomenting questions: did the occupants of the hidden house leave because the kudzu overtook the house, or did the kudzu take over the house because the occupants left? Fields of the stuff look fluffy and innocent like a new born bunny before it, too multiplies and runs rampant in the yard. Lush, green, almost jungle-esque it lounges over trees and stumps, highways and byways, poles and lines making an impervious veil for shy cows and crows.
It's Super Food, nothing can harm it; bugs won't touch it, cow's won't eat it, people can't eat it! Super Food can leap tall buildings in a single growth spurt. It's the big green monster that grows out of the woods into the fields and over the hills and fences and houses and sheds, oh my!
If you don't believe this silly tale of chlorophyll curtains and monsters and such, then come to Pittsylvania county and see for yourself!
