Listing Type : Flora

Nekemias arborea, commonly known as pepper vine, is native to the Southeastern United States, Texas, and New Mexico. It spreads rapidly, climbing up trees and bushes. Although it is attractive, its rapid growth and ability to pull down trees makes it a nuisance if not strictly confined. In its cultivation, it is used as an ornamental plant in gardens.
