It is prolific and sticky. The color in fall is orange to scarlet. The tendrils are very strong so if planted near wood siding, those little buggers can creep into the wood cracks. They are very attractive to birds but have insignificant flowers. I loved the speed that they grew but this is also an issue if it takes over and chokes out other plants. They look amazing on a trellis but I prefer putting them as ground cover to help prevent erosion. They like shade and sun. Hope this is helpful.

It is. I need part of my lawn covered.

awesome! Well have fun gardening. Another nice type of ground cover for smaller applications are the succulent plants. They hold tons of water and can handle hot sun. I think wooly thyme is also another one for soft walking surface. Anyways, have a great day!
