Cultivation Notes:  Prefers a deep rich moist well-drained moderately fertile loam[1, 200]. Grows best in a calcareous soil[200]. Requires a position in full sun[200]. This species is not hardy in the colder areas of the country[219]. Young growths and thin wood can be cut back by frosts[219]. Plants climb by means of tendrils[182]. Closely related to V. davidii[219]. Plants are rather tender in Britain when they are young, though older plants are hardy in most parts of the country[11]. Any pruning should be carried out in winter when the plants are dormant otherwise they bleed profusely[182, 200]. Plants in this genus are notably susceptible to honey fungus[200].
