There is some work involed to keep the old growth trimmed
out and spray for aphids , but the flowers and fragrance are
well worth the trouble and the birds love the berries in the
fall. It seems to like it here in Michigan.

I love its fragnance very much...could 'nt miss it for that reason. Many ...maybe showier looking ones...don't have that fragnance. I trim it to keep in shape.

In our area Woodbine is the common name for Parthenocissus quinquefolia. It will climb if tied and needs to be kept moist. It is grown mostly for it's fall foliage and the flowers are small. I seems to be doing well in my zone 3 garden.
