A strong-growing, self-clinging vine adhering itself to supports by means of adhesive pads at the ends of leaf tendrils. Tall-growing, it reaches a height of 10-20 m (1-2 m of annual growth). Healthy and undemanding species, but may freeze during sever winters. Leaves dark green, turning brilliant scarlet in autumn, the variegation being more dramatic in a sunny position. Excellent on buildings, but is also suitable for growing over arbors, pergolas and various supports.
