Few houses are abandoned and allowed to be taken over by vegetation. However, in parts of the south including the city of Atlanta those that are, are susceptible to being engulfed by kudzu. Some make interesting natural sculptures. Here are 40 buildings and old houses in 52 images which are visible from highways and streets in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina.

Wow kudzu is so cool! Can you buy it at nurseries, or is it more of a natural thing?

Holy Crap! You don’t want to buy it, its an incredibly invasive weed, particularly in the south. It’ll take over any area, and push out native vegetation, in a very short time, and is very hard to control.

A couple of miles from my home here in Virginia, there are a few acres of land that look just like that: covered in kudzu. I never thought that a HOUSE might actually be under there, but now I’ll have to go and take a second look.
My late husband and I used to say that we knew summer was truly here when the kudzu was fully leafed out and resembling topiary… how I miss him still after nearly 11 years…

Wow, I wonder what it looks like inside one of those houses, looking out. Pitch black? Eerie green light? A constellation of pinpoints of light peeking between the leaves?
