Carrion Creepers - their life cycle

Tell me more about the life cycle of Carrion Creepers. I'm haven't been able to determine it just from observation. From initial germination to their eventual wiltering, what goes on?

- How many vines per enemy does it sprout? It looks like at least one per, but sometimes I see more vines than enemies.

- Why does it seem to do damage even after all enemies are defeated? There seems to be a continual stream of orange numbers.

- At certain points, I hear a loud "BRAAK!" sound effect. There's typically one during a longish fight and a really loud one after the fight ends. I assume this is to represent some sort of reproductive sporing, but is there any actual combat benefit? Is it "absorbing" defeated enemies to self-heal?

- How fast do they move to follow me? How well can they follow me vertically?

- How long do they last? Yeah, I haven't bothered to look this up.

- And are there any other trivia about the Creepers that I ought to know about?
