Read detailed description :

Very vigorous plant that looks like the 'Veitchii' variety but with larger and regular three-lobed leaves of 15 to 35 cm long. Nice purple red autumn colouring. It can grow over 6 m tall with age. And can even attach itself on walls without damage thanks to small suckers with studs. Hardy and robust plant. Green-yellow flowers in June-July followed by blue black fruits in September-October. Ideal for covering large areas, walls, fences and facades.
