Boston Ivy (4-10) - Parthenocissus tricuspidata

Unlike English Ivy, Boston Ivy is deciduous, meaning it loses its leaves annually. Great when used as a groundcover or to climb fences or houses, this vine is prized for its dark red-purple fall foliage.

Boston Ivy should be planted in partial to full sun and in well-drained soil. Thrives with deep regular watering until established. Be mindful that this vine can cause damage to stucco and can climb up to 45'!
