Ampelopsis Hirsuta

Ampelopsis hirsuta, commonly known as the curly-leaf honeysuckle, is a vigorous trailing vine native to eastern North America. This plant is characterized by its distinctive, waxy, and often curling leaves that give it a unique appearance. It produces small, greenish-yellow flowers in the spring, followed by bright red berries that attract birds and other wildlife. While it is often considered an invasive species in some regions, it plays an important ecological role in its native habitat. Its adaptability and aesthetic appeal make it both a useful and controversial plant in horticulture.
