Air potatoes. This vine is very invasive. It will spread from underground roots, every leaf node that touches the ground and the potato-like fruit that forms in the Autumn. Lovely leaves though. Eat up bugs!

The reason for the holes, by the way, are a result of Florida University releasing a fly that loves air potatoes. Slowly working it’s way up the food chain.
