[QUOTE="phillse, post: 471392, member: 5684"] Kudzu is a pest, yes it shows promise as a food with great nutritional value. However, it is a non-native species with no natural pests ie. viruses and bacteria such as it has in its native invironment. Therefore it is a noxious weed choking everything in its path, trees old homesteads, etc. Most of our great ideas brought about by promising non-native plants has been disasterous, here are a few examples of many disasters kudzu, cogon grass, chinese tallow tree. So a word of caution stay away from non-native species that seem too good to be true. They are too good to b e true and thus become pests. [/QUOTE]
