Virginia Creeper is easy to grow, even by beginner's standards. Tolerating nearly any soil and light conditions, this vine will quickly grow to cover everything in its path. It is a clinging vine, so it will automatically attach itself to any wall or fence that it is planted against. Regular pruning will help to keep this plant in bounds. Parthenocissus is able to tolerate pollution from urban settings.
