AMERICAN VINE IN EUROPE
Even Venice Has Added to Its Beauty
by Adoption of the Vir
ginia Creeper.
Down to Cuba, up to Newfoundland
and as far west as the Mississippi
river and the Virginia creeper has
crept until it covers all the territory
in between. It didn’t creep to Europe,
because it couldn’t, but it was taken
there by a man, and there it is held in
high honor. It is widely cultivated,
and even Venice has reared stately
trellises to guide the creeper over its
architectural treasures, the Philadel
phia North American says.
Maybe you know the Virginia creep
er when you see it. If you are not
sure, go slowly, for you might pick on
the poison ivy by mistake, though you
need only remember that the creeper
has five leaves in a group, while the
poison ivy has only three.
The creeper clings to vertical sur
faces with tiny tendrils, which form
disks like little suckers. Darwin took
a day off one time and found out that
one of these little disks will support a
weight of two pounds.
