Fallopia baldschuanica

Russian vine or mile a minute plant ( syn. Polygonum baldschuanicum )

Product Image
In August and September this woody deciduous climber is literally smothered with panicles of tiny, funnel-shaped, pink-tinged white flowers. Ideal for covering an unsightly structure or wall in sun or partial shade, but plant with caution since it's extremely fast-growing and can end up choking everything in its path!
