Notes:

I see this vine growing all over northern Ga. I just never thought to ask anyone what it is…

Thanks for your help!

   Virginia creeper. It’s not poison ivy or poison oak but I still can’t make myself touch it!

   It is the Virginia Creeper. An eastern native vine with fiery red fall foliage. I’m a student at Gwinnett Technical College.

   it is a virginia creeper and grows hand in hand with poison ivey (prefer the same conditions). the cherokee indians used its leaves as a herbal remedy for poison ivey…not sure if clinical trials have ever been conducted to test efficacy.
