Parthenocissus tricuspidata Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Requires a well-drained moisture retentive fertile soil[200]. Succeeds in any fertile soil in sun or part shade[202]. Dormant plants are hardy to about -15°c[200], though the young growth in spring can be damaged by late frosts. A very ornamental plant[1], there are several named varieties[182]. The flowers are only produced on mature stems[202] and plants usually only fruit after a long hot summer[219]. A rampant climbing plant, clinging by means of round pad-like suckers on the tendrils[11]. It can become a bit of a nuisance by growing into gutters[182]. Plants are very tolerant of trimming and can be cut right back to within 1 metre of the base if required to rejuvenate the plant[202]. Any pruning is best carried out in the spring[219]. Dislikes transplanting[11], plants often put on very little growth in the year after planting out, though they are then fast growing[202]. Plants often hybridize and so do not always come true from seed[200]. For further Parthenocissus tricuspidata gardening information |
