    Kudzu…a highly invasive species not introduced into the US until after the Civil War.

      Understood. It’s everywhere down there. US Grant mentions in his memoirs about the topography of the region, “ravines filled with cane brakes and vegetation”, so i guess Kudzu replaced the cane brakes etc.
      Thanks for looking at the blog.
