Tips from Fran
This might seem like a boring plant, but really this little winter creeper is truly a superior landscape plant. It isn’t fast by any means, but creeps and covers densely. The color in fall and winter is a nice red/orange and the most amazing thing I have found about it...this little wonder climbs! I have seen it climb trees and cover walls little Boston Ivy. Very, very cool.
