    Virginia Creeper (all over my yard) grows incredibly fast and is hard to control. It's pretty in small doses, say on a fence, but you can't take your eye off it or it can take over. It's good if you want to cover something quickly. The leaves turn red in Autumn.

    I agree 100%... I hate to say it but it is a nuisance.

    Thanks. I think I'll pull it out as it is amongst my tomato plants and sunflowers and other things im not sure of there names maybe I'll take more pictures in a week. when things get a little bigger not sure whats where any more as my dogs decided to dig after i dropped the seeds in . I do know i have a lot of sunflowers though. Think that's what they are any how.
