well this evening just before dark in the rain I found this vine. Its growing all over spiraling up trees and sprireling around its self. vines from the size of a pincel to about maybe 2in in diamiter. I had no machette or tools to cut a sample but was able to rip off some of the bark. the inner bark can easly be pulled from the outter bark. It gets reddish vains/sap where the bark is split. I live in the tropical rain forest of maui, Hawaii. could this be caapi? here are some crappy phone photos of the bark after i brought it home. will go back in a few days to get a better sample. any idea what this vine is? stoneyone attached the following image(s):  0410121819a.jpg (799kb) downloaded 76 time(s). 0410121818.jpg (769kb) downloaded 74 time(s). 0410121821.jpg (805kb) downloaded 74 time(s). 0410121821a.jpg (739kb) downloaded 74 time(s). 0410121819.jpg (793kb) downloaded 74 time(s).

You should look at the leaves and post pictures of the plant in its natural state. Being cut up on a table might be harder to tell. Plus if it was diagnosed wrong from lack of "knowing" then you could potentually poison yourself. Be careful!

by no way would i ever consume a plant with out knowing for sure and i do plan on going back and taking better pictures of it in its natural state. this was just a few hours ago and did get a little overly excited but after doing more reserch im a little unsure but still not totally rulling it out..this was found near the george harrison estate and its been said that hes planted it there.

thats def not caapi. na easy thing to do next time is make a clean cut and look at the pattern. Caapi makes a well defined flower pattern cross section. Its quite beautiful. olympus mon attached the following image(s):  image_resize.jpg (8kb) downloaded 50 time(s).I am not gonna lie, shits gonna get weird!Troubles Breaking Through? Click here.
