Virginia Creeper

Virginia Creepers (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) is a woody deciduous vine that can grow anywhere from 3 to 40 feet. It's only limiting factor is the structure on which is climbs. This particular species is growing on the side of Grandpa Spaulding's garage, bright against the white paint.

This woody, deciduous vine will be sure to catch your eye, especially in the fall as it has bright orange-red leaves. It is a must-see in the fall as this beautiful vine can be labeled as a nuisance species.

Virginia Creepers grow in sun, part shade, and shade. They prefer to grow in moist, well-drained, sandy soils.
