Polygonum aubertii #874050

Asked June 21, 2024, 11:07 AM EDT

Hello there, I work for Meadowlark Botanical Gardens in Vienna, VA and was picking out plants for next season when I came across this Silver Lace Vine. I wanted to know if it has potential to become invasive here in Northern VA. I read that it can be an aggressive grower, but I didn't know if there'd been instances of it escaping into the wild in this region. I appreciate any insight you may have on the subject! Thanks, Sarah Causey
