More Information

Description Lush, green summer foliage transitions to a vibrant red in the fall, making Boston Ivy (Parthenocissus tricuspidata) a popular clinging vine. Short tendrils easily grip surfaces, making climbing a breeze. Plant near walls, trellises, arbors, or fences to create a gorgeous backdrop for your garden. It also serves as a ground cover that goes dormant in the winter. While Boston ivy is known for the leaves, it also grows small green blooms and dark-colored berries that attract birds. We love how quickly this perennial grows. If left alone, it will grow up to 50 feet tall! Let this plant rule your landscape, or keep it in control with annual pruning and sheering. Details Botanical Name: Parthenocissus tricuspidata
Common Name: Boston Ivy
Zone: 4 - 8

Foliage Color: Dark green, orange, red
Season of interest: Summer through fall

Features: Privacy & screening, heat tolerant, ground covers, fall color, drought tolerant, deer resistant, best sellers
Uses: Cottage gardening, ground cover, privacy, erosion control, vines and climbers
How To Grow Soil: Well-drained, loamy soil
Light: Sun to part-sun
Water: Water needs are average.
Spacing: Vines are vigorous and rapid growers and can grow to 50 ft high and 10 ft wide, so space generously.
Fertilizing: While fertilizing is unnecessary, if you have infertile soil, you may apply a slow-release fertilizer in the spring as new growth develops.
Winterizing: Boston ivy winter care is minimal and consists primarily of pruning. Young vines may appreciate extra mulching, but they are generally hardy.
Maintenance & Pruning: Prune the vines once each year (in late winter) to control the rapid growth. The vines respond well to pruning, so have no fear!

Thriving and huge!

I gotta say I wasn't sure these little Boston Ivy plants would grow when I put them in the ground a couple of months ago. But they really, really took off. They look AMAZING!!! Oh my gosh. Couldn't be happier!!!!

Very pleased.

My Boston Ivy plants arrived well-packed and in excellent condition. Already been two weeks in the ground and all are thriving. Can't wait for the next few years when these darlings take off. Thanks.

BOSTON IVY

Admittedly we don't have them in the ground yet. However, we transplanted them into a pig container. I followed the instructions exactly. Some plants appear to be OK, and some do not. Time will tell, Will get them all in the ground this weekend.

Not Happy!

I immediately planted the plants as soon as they arrived. Only 1 of them looks like it might survive. the others were badly wilted and dried out upon arrival and have since withered to nothing.

Quickly Died

My Boston Ivy was received and planted in the Fall. It quickly died. I waited till Spring to verify that it was truly beyond hope. By then it was outside the window to get a replacement.
