Description
Supplejack can tolerate extreme habitats and a wide range of conditions. In bottomland forests, it can become a large, twining vine with woody stems. It can also grow in the desert-like conditions of Missouri glades where it becomes a densly sprawling mat.
Wildlife use the plant both as a food source, eating the drupes of blue berries, and as a place of shelter. The berries should not be consumed by people.
Its common names of supple-jack or rattan vine indicate its use for making walking sticks or wicker products.
Uses: wildlife, groundcover, wood products
Bloom time: May to June (greenish/yellow flowers)
