AAck! What an amazingly adaptable plant, though. It grows fabulously here in Florida, too. I am just beginning my usual late-summer routine of rousting it out of my hedge along the east side.
In Utah though, it's not often a problem because it's such a dry climate (usually). We lived there for 21 years before moving here, and my kids still live there so I visit often. If Becky's overgrown spots in her pictures didn't get so darned much rain this spring, I'll bet she'd never notice a little wisp or two of Virginia Creeper there.
