Site Requirements /Soil Tolerances: Best in rich, well-drained, somewhat acidic (pH 5-6.5), well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Neutral soils are okay but if the soil becomes too basic, the leaves may show nitrogen deficiency and look yellowish. They do not tolerate salty soils. Planting in infertile soil may temper somewhat rapid growth habit.
Culture: Needs frequent pruning, including an annual winter pruning of each stem back to 8-10 buds and an annual summer pruning of excessively long shoots. The fruit is borne on shoots from one year old or older wood. Cut out shoots that have fruited for three years and remove shoots that have twined around main branches. Fruits are ripe in late Summer to Fall when they begin to fall off the vine. To pick the fruit, snap or cut them off the vine so that the fruit stalks remain on the vine.
Uses: Rapid growth habit makes it suitable for a variety of cover-type uses such as on a trellis, arbor, patio overhead, fence, or wall.
