Description
Creeping Wire Vine is a very hardy and vigorous creeping wine with small, oval shaped, dark green leaves on wiry stems. Green flowers in spring are followed by white berries. This vine is a tough one; quite tolerant of foot traffic, drought and heat tolerant, and totally deer and rabbit resistant, making it a fine selection where a low-growing, ground-hugging perennial groundcover or filler plant is needed in the landscape. Also very nice as an accent or soil cover/spiller in combination container gardens.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing in a low and spreading mound 6 to 8 inches tall and spreading 24 inches or more, the Creeping Wire Vine has many uses in design. It is ideal for use as a groundcover in sunny or shady landscape borders, as an underplanting for small or large trees, as an erosion controller on embankments and slopes, as a low border plant along paths and walkways, and as a texture and spiller plant in container gardens. Especially nice around boulders.
Suggested Spacing: 18 to 24 inches apart for mass planting

Growing Preferences
When planted right and in the right spot, Creeping Wire Vine is exceptionally easy to grow. It prefers a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility but handles dry soil conditions when established. We've grown in it both sun and shade and it performs equally as well.
