I have seen a lot of comments online that they are invasive and some people dont like them But then I will see a few that people dont mind them. I wanted some becuase they attract birds and they have really pretty fall foliage. I think it would look great and we arent planning on a garden around it so it wouldnt smother anything. Any suggestions?
Is it a good idea to grow some Virginia Creepers in front of my house?
when we moved into our house, i had a heck of a time untangling them from the outside air conditioning unit, the tall windows on the front of the house, under the front porch, and they had started to go underneath the siding on the house. i'd say not to plant it too close to the house, if you want to plant it. if i had a choice, they'd be in the back yard along the back fence, maybe on a pretty trellis. good luck!
Reply:NO! Don't do it!!! They are beautiful in the summer and fall, but cause way too much damage to the house. The "suction cups" that hold them on the wall will leave a semi-permanent (very difficult to remove) spots everywhere and that is not the worst thing; they are more than capable of cracking bricks, destroying mortar, or popping off siding.
