Add item to quote to see pricing

Parthenocissus tricuspidata 'Green Showers' is an enrapturing, hardy vine more commonly known as Boston Ivy 'Green Showers', originating from the forests of East Asia. Offering both aesthetic allure and functional coverage, it's distinguished by its lustrous, three-lobed leaves that exhibit a lively green in spring and summer, before indulging the landscape in a fiery symphony of reds, oranges and purples come the cooler autumn months. Come summer, it dapples the flourishing green canvas with small, greenish-white bursts of bloom that later head into winter as attractive, blue-black berries, a delightful feast for local birdlife. Growing up to an impressive 50 feet, it proficiently scales walls, fences and trellises, bringing a fresh, organic touch to urban landscapes that yearn for a splash of nature or a shield of privacy. Requiring only moderate watering and adaptable to a variety of sun exposures, from full sun to part shade, this robust vine has a commendable resilience to pests and moderate upkeep needs, making it a captivating yet practical choice for garden designs seeking vertical depth, dynamic color transitions, and soft textures.
