Read detailed description :

Orangey-pink to yellow colours in autumn. An excellent brightly coloured climbing plant. Modest dimensions, ideal for small spaces, growing to a medium height. This plant appeared on the front of a building in Boston, Massachussets, near Fenway Park. Noticed by Peter Del Tredici, at the time a senior research scientist at the famous Arnold Arboretum in 1988. Named in 1991 and then, thankfully, distributed to nurseries. (The mother plant was stripped from the wall in 1990). Prefers a west or north exposure.
