A strong-growing, twining vine reaching a height of 12 m. A female, profusely fruiting form. Tolerant of cold temperatures and various soil and light conditions. Lots of lovely roundish leaves, turning clear yellow in autumn. Striking yellow-red fruits (only on female plants) that remain decorative for several months (October-December) are excellent for interior decoration.
Recommended for covering tall fences, unsightly buildings and various supports. Due to its rampant growth it can overwhelm other plants.
