Is it possible to grow kudzu indoors in pots?

I think kudzu is a fascinating plant and would like to grow it next spring as a hanging plant. How do I get it started in a pot? I tried several times this past year, and managed to kill it every time. Forget about the stories -- kudzu is NOT easy to propagate!! Anyone know anything specific about how this plant works? Also, Can I keep it in pots/planters and bring it in for cold weather, or does it have to die down in the fall?

if you have no luck growing Kudzu you gotta brown thumb - you do need to keep the soil moist tho and it likes filtered sun not direct ( the young plants start in shaded areas only when older can they take sun )





oh yea you need a runner with a 'node' on it to propagate ( you won't have a lot of luck just using a random piece ) that is how it spreads in the wild and why it is so invasive it rarely propergates with seed
Reply:Not sure, but Kudzu grows in a moist and warm enviroment. It doesn't germinate correctly in a cold enviroment.
