Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The eye-catching lemon-green leaves on reddish stems of this splendid Bluebird Nursery introduction make it a handsome vine even before its foamy white late summer flowers appear; smaller than the species. S/M
a.k.a. Polygonum aubertii 'Lemon Lace'. An exciting take on Silver Fleece Vine. Lemon-gold foliage accented with red stems brighten up any spot, with foamy white flowers in mid summer. 15-20'.
PROFUSE, FRAGRANT white flowers in late summer on a 'Polygonum' that is nothing like it's rampant cousins. It's a VINE, not a ground cover. It is vigorous but doesn't take over your yard or house. Excellent for covering fences and buildings.

This fast-growing, twining, deciduous vine can grow 10-15' or more per season. The leaves are a reddish color on new growth, turning bright green when mature. It has dense foliage and flowers that are white to greenish white, in long, fragrant, racemes. These flowers bloom in late summer to fall.

Finally something that can go toe-to-toe with Golden Hops! This sport of silver lace vine has excellent lemon-yellow foliage with salmon-pink stems. Less vigorous than the typical form, this deciduous herbaceous vine still manages 15’-20’ of vibrant color. In late summer and fall you can enjoy the poofy clusters of small white flowers. Hardy to zone 5 and good in sun. Very good.
