Summary ²

Ampelopsis arborea, commonly known as pepper vine, is native to the Southeastern United States, Texas, and New Mexico. It spreads rapidly, climbing up trees and bushes. Although it is attractive, its rapid growth and ability to pull down trees makes it a nusiance if not strictly confined.
