When i was walking inside the jungle of Vietnam....i have to beware of this thorny plant which is introduced by US army during the Vietnam war to slow down the advance of Viet Cong army.....Anyone knows the name of this thorny plant? It is a vine.

Barclaya longifolia.

Begonia on granite boulder.

Can you imagine this lush green jungle of southern part of Vietnam was a dead forest before? All the trees there almost dead because US warplanes sprayed more than 20 million gallons of herbicide defoliants into those areas during the Vietnam war. How amazing it is for the forest to recover after so many years later.
