Rigging tentacles/vines

[trace11]

I have a vegetable character modeled, and instead of arms and hands, i am giving it vine-tentacles that need to wrap around things to grad objects and they also need a wide range of motion.  Can anyone tell me how to rig them, or are there any good tutorials out there for this (I could use any tutorials on how to model the tentacles, as well, just to make sure my mesh is good enough for rigging).

Thanks!
