We have a similar (might even be the same, but ours is a tropical rainforest plant) we call Wait a While or Lawyer vine and it has very tough razor sharp thorns. Nasty little bugger as when it gets a hold of you the only thing you can do is stop and take the time to untangle yourself. If you just pull away from it, it can, and will, cut any exposed flesh it gets its hooks into. |
