Parthenocissus quinquefolia
{24 Pots - 3 1/2 in.}


(AKA Virginia Creeper, Woodbine, Fiveleaved Ivy, Five-finger, Engelman Ivy, Vitis quinquefolia)

Parthenocissus quinquefolia is a deciduous woody vine that makes a dense groundcover. It spreads quickly and indefinitely. Five 6" x 2 1/2" leaflets, reddish at break, green at maturity. Outstanding red fall color. One of the plants that produce fruit that attract birds.

When given something to climb, it climbs aggressively with adhesive tendrils to 100 feet. It is widely grown as a climbing ornamental plant to cover buildings. This usage is economically important because, by shading walls during the summer, it can significantly reduce cooling costs.

While the plant does not penetrate the building surface but merely attaches with adhesive pads, nevertheless damage can occur from attempting to rip the plant from the wall. However, if the plant is killed first, such as by severing the vine from the root, the adhesive pads will eventually deteriorate to the point where the plant can be easily removed.

Recommended for naturalizing and erosion control. One of the few groundcovers that will grow under walnut trees. Salt tolerant. Mature prostrate height 6" - 8", spacing 12" - 18".
