Virginia Creeper

Brief Description

Virginia Creeper is a vigorous, deciduous vine characterized by its palmately compound leaves, typically made up of five leaflets (though sometimes three or seven, especially on younger growth). The leaves start green and can turn brilliant shades of red or purple in the fall. It produces small, inconspicuous green flowers followed by dark blue to black berries.

Care Instructions

Virginia Creeper is highly adaptable and relatively low-maintenance. It thrives in a wide range of soil conditions, from sandy to clay, and tolerates both full sun and significant shade. It's drought-tolerant once established. Pruning is often necessary to control its vigorous growth, especially if grown on structures or near desirable plants.
