Sugar vine (potted): miniature Virginia Creeper - Sugar vine (potted): miniature Virginia Creeper - I found this Sugar vine plant (Cissus striata) at @valleyviewgardens and was immediately drawn to it due to its strong resemblance to the Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), which, although an aggressive grower, I quite like how it hides the fence in my backyard. - Once I've seen how the sugar vine grows, I'll put out a care guide.
