Parthenocissus quinquefolia

When to plant virginia creeper

Virginia creeper is a vigorous tendril-climbing native vine grown for its crimson fall color; its greenish flowers in late spring to early summer (NC State: May to July) are insignificant. Plant in spring or fall where it has room to run; the best red fall color comes in sunnier spots.

Virginia Creeper is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
