About this plant

Veitchii Boston ivy has glossy, three-lobed leaves that turn rich red before falling in autumn.

The flexible stems form a wide wall-covering network of clinging stems, covering an increasing area once established.

Best used for

Use to clothe a sturdy wall or facade where its vigorous climbing habit can be managed.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 50–100 cm per year Fast growth
Expected mature size 10–20 m high / 3–6 m wide

Expect around 50–100 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 10–20 m in height and 3–6 m in width. Its spread depends on the available support and how regularly the stems are trimmed.

How to care

Plant in ordinary well-drained soil near a sound, suitable wall and water until established. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Cut back stems yearly to keep them clear of gutters, roofs, windows and neighbouring plants.

You will receive a healthy container plant in the selected size. The plant is prepared for delivery and supplied ready for planting.

Natural variation in shape, branching, leaf density and seasonal appearance is normal. Plants may look different depending on the time of year.
