This woody deciduous vine was collected in northern California. Large lobed, bright green leaves turn an intense red color in the fall. Inconspicuous flowers are followed by small, tasty, edible grape clusters that ripen in the summer. This sprawling plant needs support for climbing. Plant in full sun. Leaf skeletonizer caterpillars can be a problem, but are easily controlled.
