I've never heard of it. But then I'm an intermittent gardener, lol. Do you have photos?

You will be well blessed with two of them!! LOL They are very productive & also throw off babies. I love the look of them but am contemplating yanking mine out because it is so invasive.

Lindy,dug mine up today you wouldn't believe the root system on such young plants.Moved my Clemetis over their hope the survive as I'm told they don't like movin!Put the lacy on the light pole might improve the looks of the pole.

Update,the Silverlace loves the telephone pole and the transplanted Clematis survived the move and is doing well on the trellis.Have taken a fancy to some neat vines and planted several this spring.The owner of Arrowhead Alpine Gardens a very accomplished plantsman says he has a vine on most all his trees.

My Silverlace is to the top of the ugly old pole and made it more presentable.
