Boston Ivy
This deciduous vine has tendrils which have 5 to 8 branches, each ending in adhesive-like tips; it has the ability to literally cement itself to the wall and therefore needs no support; good on trees, will as well crawl along the ground; secretes calcium carbonate which serves as adhesive. Use in full sun to full shade, salt tolerant, handles most all conditions.
Boston Ivy, Parthenocissus tricuspidata, is as well known as Cottage Ivy and Japanese Ivy.
