Muehlenbeckia complexa

5 from 1 customers

Muehlenbeckia complexa, commonly known as Maidenhair Vine, Creeping Wire Vine, or Pohuehue, is a low growing groundcover plant or climbing vine. This NZ native forms a dense mat of wiry, brown stems carrying tiny, green leaves. It grows to 30 cm tall and 2 m wide as a groundcover, but will climb fences, etc, with its twining stems to much larger sizes. Muehlenbeckia complexa makes for an attractive ground cover and will tolerate a reasonable amount of foot traffic. Its climbing nature makes it great for growing on fences or trellises for topiary.
