❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does Boston Ivy damage walls?
No—Boston Ivy clings with adhesive pads (not roots), making it safer for brick, wood, stone, and concrete compared to English Ivy.
How long does it take Boston Ivy to cover a wall?
With proper care, you can expect noticeable coverage in the first year, and full coverage in 2–3 seasons.
Does Boston Ivy stay green year-round?
It is deciduous, so leaves turn brilliant red in fall and drop in winter, returning each spring.
Is Boston Ivy invasive?
It grows vigorously but is not listed as invasive in most U.S. states. It can be controlled easily with pruning.
Do I need to provide support for the vine?
No—Boston Ivy naturally climbs and adheres to surfaces using tendrils with suction-like pads.
