Hi Paul & All, Oct 5, 2011
It is native to the much of eastern USA but widely planted as an ornamental and spreads from cultivation; thus introduced here but native in se Maine.
In good light it has an abundance of flowers and fruits; vigorously worked by Bumble Bees and Pileated Woodpeckers respectively.

Subject: [NatureNS] Virginia Creeper
Hi All
Today I went over to the river to see how high the water came. Real high!
In the woods there is a Virginia Creeper ( Parthenocissus quinquefolia ).
Bright today with the dark skies. The reds to purple were spectular.
There seems to be some variation as to if its a native or introduced.
Roland says introduced but the USDA www site says its native to North Americia.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Have a nice day
Paul
