This fast growing vine easily clings to walls and other surfaces for a quick cover, with more open growth than its cousin Boston Ivy. The dark green foliage turns brilliant orange-red in fall. Works well as a groundcover, blanketing unsightly areas. Its small, purple-black, ornamental berries are a good winter food source for birds.
