Ampelopsis aconitifolia, Monkshood Vine

This vigorous and deciduous climber has glossy palmate leaves reminiscent of perennial monkshood. Clusters of non-showy greenish flowers in late summer give way to bluish fruits which mature to a showy yellow and orange in fall. Best berry production (and that is what it's all about) is in full sun. This tendril climber can clamber over the ground or up a supportive structure. 15 – 25' tall Minimum temperature: -30° F
