  1. http://maps.google.com/maps?safe=on&q=Ko...

    locates, and I am guessing the climate would be roughly similar to New Orleans, Lousiana, USA

    Does not freeze

    Reasonable amounts of sun

    Seasonal heavy rainfall.

    Kudzu will flower occaisionally, but is mostly leaf.  

    Water Hyacinth would survive *in* a pool of water, but may also bloom in season.  

    Cacti-succulents can go a long time without water, and probably will not care about sun if there is more sun than water, but again, sometimes may occaisionally bloom.
