Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent handle vines by species, growth habit, cultivation, support and invasiveness, with cautions on toxic plants.

A plant with a growth habit of trailing or climbing stems or runners, supporting itself by twining, tendrils, hooks or aerial roots, such as grapevines, kiwifruit, guarana, many tropical climbers and some pitcher plants.

What it is for: Food crops such as grapes and kiwifruit, ornament, shade and habitat.

It can be identify climbing plants; train and support vines; prune for fruit; control invasive climbers.

Distinguishing features

Climbing or trailing habit

Uses other plants or structures for support

Includes important crops

Some are invasive or toxic

What it looks like

Long flexible stems climbing supports or trailing over the ground.

How it is recognised

Climbing mechanisms: twining, tendrils, suckers

Woody lianas and herbaceous climbers

The grapevine is the vine in viticulture
