Product information
Common name: Boston Ivy
Parthenocissus tricuspidata is a deciduous vine, native to China and Japan. In milder areas it behaves as a semi-evergreen. This variety of Boston ivy has shallow-lobed leaves, creating a jagged appearance. The leaves change colour in autumn to a fiery dark red-purple before they drop in winter. It makes a much more decorative plant for a wall or pergola than the normal species Parthenocissus tricuspidata, which has only plain three-lobed leaves. 'Veitchii' makes a good textured covering for any large sunny surface, and can even be used in a large garden as ground cover among shrubs. Plant Strengths: Attractive autumn colour; All round tough plant suitable for problem areas; Ideal for fast growing screening; Suitable for container growing; Tolerates full sun and sandy, drought-prone soils; Tolerates cold exposed locations; Tolerates heavy clay soils. |
