Plant Description
|
Glowing red or yellow autumn colors endear this native vine to California gardens, but leaves may drop before colors turn from green when summer water is withheld. Clinging tendrils allow stems to climb up trellises and across arbors as well as through trees. Named cultivars such as ‘Roger’s Red’ flaunt the most brilliant hues.
