Faits intéressants
Woodbine is a vigorous native climbing vine recognized for its five-part leaves and spectacular red autumn colour.
Woodbine typically climbs by tendrils that wrap around supports. Its small flowers attract pollinators, while its blue-black berries provide valuable food for birds throughout the fall.
In the garden, woodbine is excellent for covering fences, arbors, and large trellises, or for naturalizing along woodland edges.
