Geocache Description:


Lovevine is a parasitic vine with smooth, wiry, twining stems that attach to a host plant with tiny suckers. Only the seedlings have roots. The tangled stems are usually orange, but may be yellowish, whitish, or greenish or even tinged with red or purple. The stems turn black when the plant dies. One lovevine plant looks like a fat yellow thread tangled in the weeds. Large numbers of them crawl over shrubbery to form blankets that look like masses of wet excelsior. The tiny leaves are scalelike and almost invisible, whereas the numerous clusters of little waxy cream colored 5-petaled flowers and subsequent 1/8 in (0.3 cm) seedpods are more noticeable. There are 2 to 4 3-sided brownish seeds in each 2-celled capsule. Also called: dodder, strangleweed, hellbind, and/or goldthread, various lovevine species have been used to treat a great variety of different ailments in numerous cultures.
