Culture

Best grown in slightly acidic, humusy, moderately fertile, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Full sun is needed for best flowering. Can be invasive (rampant growth plus rooting surface runners). This vine needs space and a sturdy support structure on which to grow. It can be slow to establish. Vines may produce flowers by the second or third year after planting, but may take longer. Vines need regular pruning(s) in order to control size and shape of the plant and to encourage flowering, such as a pruning back of stems in early summer after bloom and in winter. Root pruning in late fall may also stimulate flowering for the following spring. Improper pruning may overly stimulate vegetative growth at the expense of flowers. Consult a pruning guide for specifics on the initial training of vines and the types of pruning that can or should be done for these high maintenance plants. More demonstrative pruning may become needed if plants do not flower after growing for several years. An application of fertilizer in early spring can also stimulate flowering. Choose growing sites wisely because plants dislike being transplanted.
