English: Mikania micrantha is a tropical plant in the Asteraceae family; known as Bitter Vine or Climbing Hemp Vine or American Rope. It is a vigorously growing perennial creeper that grows best in areas in high humidity, light and soil fertility, through, it can adapt in less fertile soils. The featherlike seeds are dispersed by wind. A single stalk can produce between 20 and 40 thousand seeds a season. The species is native to the sub-tropical zones of North, Central, and South America.
It is a widespread weed in the tropics. It grows very quickly (as fast as 80 to 90 mm in 24 hours for a young plant) and covers other plants, shrubs and even trees.
Mikania is a genus of about 450 species in the family of Asteraceae. The name honors the Czech botanist Johann Christian Mikan. Members of the genus are stem twiners and lianas and are common in the neotropical flora.
