Notes
Crimson glory vine (Vitis coignetiae) is a vine for borders and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and most soil types. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Its light green flowers open in summer, and the leaves turn color in fall. Give it a strong support because it grows tall and wide.
Pairs well with Passionflower, Jerusalem sage, and Berggarten sage.
