Parthenocissus mix tray (Virginia Creeper / Boston Ivy) / 2ltr 65cm

Overview

Parthenocissus (Virginia Creeper / Boston Ivy types) are vigorous, deciduous climbers prized for rapid coverage and exceptional autumn colour. This is a mixed-variety tray, so leaf shape and colour intensity can vary, but all provide dramatic seasonal transformation.

Key Features

• Fast-growing cover for walls, fences and large structures
• Spectacular autumn colour in reds and oranges (conditions dependent)
• Many types are self-clinging via tendrils with adhesive pads
• Excellent for creating living faades and cooling green surfaces in summer

Best Position

• Sun to partial shade (best autumn colour in sun)
• Most soils with reasonable drainage
• Consider the surface: self-clinging climbers can mark delicate finishes

Care Tips

• Prune in winter or early spring to control size and keep away from gutters and windows
• Water in the first season; established plants are generally tolerant
• Guide young growth to the desired areas early for a clean, intentional result

Perfect For

• Large-scale wall greening and dramatic autumn displays
• Architectural planting in contemporary gardens
