grape vine like vine???

13 years ago

This vine is enormous..some leaves are as big as a dinner plate. Right now there are no flowers or fruits, so I have only these pictures to ID with..the Monarch or Queen larvae tells me something..they usually don't host on anything outside the Milkweed family..it is a mystery vine so far..any guesses?

Pics here:

It's a wild grape. Not all wild grape vines will bear every year. Some never bear.
