Ampelopsis glangulosa var. maximowiczii is a vigorous climbing plant of moderate growth. It is still not widely used in our gardens. Its ornamental aspect lies mainly in its astonishing fruiting. Attracting the eye, the clusters appear to be composed of multicolored porcelain beads, in perfect harmony with the bright green foliage composed of lobed leaves. The foliage is less dense than that of the common Virginia creeper. This splendid plant covers itself with beautiful autumnal colours and clings by means of tendrils. Perfectly hardy, undemanding, intensely unique, it is destined for a great future.
Ampelopsis belong to the family of Vitaceae. The origins of the species A. glandulosa are found in China, India, Japan, Myanmar, and Nepal. It is a climbing plant that can reach 4.5 to 5 metres (15 to 16 feet) in all directions. Its growth is rapid. The deciduous and bright green foliage is composed of alternate, compound, variable-shaped leaves, more or less trilobed. Flowering occurs from April to August, in the form of small greenish flowers organised in cymes. It is followed in late summer and autumn by the formation of 5 to 8 mm (0in) diameter seeds, whose colour evolves as they ripen, in a mixture of pale green, turquoise blue, bright blue, pink, mauve, and violet. Its tendrils are non-adhesive and have 2 or 3 branches. The seeds are dispersed by birds that relish them. In the absence of more precise data, it is best to avoid consuming them.
Ampelopsis glandulosa var. heterophylla can be grown like the classic Virginia creeper, on a facade, although its size is more modest, or on a large tree, or on a support such as a pergola or a fence to which it will cling with its tendrils.
In China, the leafy stems and roots are used for their medicinal properties. The fruit is said to be suitable for winemaking according to some.

Botanical data
Ampelopsis glandulosa var. maximowiczii, a climbing vine with blue fruits, should be planted in autumn or spring in a damp, deep soil that retains moisture but is well-drained, neither too chalky nor too acidic. It appreciates indirect sun or partial shade. Be careful not to damage the root ball! Train the young plants until they can cling on their own. Monitor the growth of this climbing plant and pinch back misdirected voluble stems. Prune vigorously after fruiting.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
