Virginia creeper is a native plant in Connecticut (alas, so is poison ivy). I like it because it not only supports local wildlife, but also has amazing fall color - brilliant red. The gazebo at Elizabeth Park in the rose garden is covered with it and is spectacular in September.
Virginia Creeper...
Thanks for your help...
I am allergic!
Don't see any berries ....but it is very invasive!
did it have any flowers? what color berries?
Neither oak nor sumac - look at google images of the vines. I'm trying to see if it's in one of my i.d. books...
Thanks!!!! Poison something though....at least I think! Sumac or oak?
Not poison ivy
