It's Polygonum aubertii, aka Fleeceflower, a twining vine that is very
vigorous and spreads by rhizomes. Good for quick cover, it is quite
adaptable and will grow where few other vines will -- in full sun or shade,
and even in dry soil. So, basically, culture is simple -- just put it in the
ground and stand back! --Janis
