Virginia Creeper

[soniaweir]

I need to advise! WE have a creeper on a wall at the back of our garden. We only moved into the house in June and it was lovely and green and in the autumn went lovely and red. All` the leaves fell off and i keep checking for new buds but there are none. Does anyone know when they start to grow? i thought they have started by now. Has it died?

i doubt it. they are really hardy - took lots of effort to get rid of ours!

Depending on where you are in the country Virginia creeper should start to bud during March and dreamingofsun is right it's very difficult to kill!

well i think something has gone wrong as there is not one green bud on it. it's just branches! oh dear, its covers the wall at the bottom of our garden and it looks really pretty in the summer, now all we will have is a big wall (side of a mosque) :(

mine is just budding now but is in full sun - give it a few weeks
