Araujia sericofera
Araujia sericifera (Commoon month-vine; syn. Araujia hortorum Fourn., Physianthus albens C.Martius) is an ornamental plant in the Asclepiadaceae family.
It is considered a weed in many parts of the world and is known for its ability to densely cover tree canopies, often starving the trees of needed sunlight, ultimately causing their deterioration.
Officially known as 'Araujia sericifera', this plant is native to South America.
