Notes
'Ginza Lights' Boston ivy (Parthenocissus tricuspidata 'Ginza Lights') is a vine for borders and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy or clay soil. Greenish white flowers open in spring and summer and attract bees and birds. Deer tend to pass it by. It grows at a rapid rate and turns color in fall, so give it room to spread.
Pairs well with Panicle hydrangea, Blue flag, and White spruce.
