Vitis coignetiae, Pulliat. Fig. 3966. Very strong-growing vine, covering trees and arbors with a thatch of heavy showy foliage: branches floccose-tomentose when young: tendrils intermittent: lvs. cordate-orbicular, with 3-5 lobe-like points, the margins shallowly apiculate-toothed, dull above, thickly gray-pubescent beneath: thyrse stalked, short: fr. globular, about 1/3 in. diam., practically inedible, although said to be eaten after being frozen by the Japanese. N. Japan. Gn. 49, p. 48; 50, p. 449; 63, p. 209. G. 22:523. R.H. 1898, pp. 426-8. G.C. III.22:305 (adapted in Fig. 3966).—One of the best of all strong-growing vines, and hardy in the northern states; at Chicago recommended as the best vine for large effects. Its foliage becomes brilliant scarlet in the fall, whence it has been called the "crimson glory vine." In general appearance it much resembles Vitis Labrusca. In cult. it has been confused with V. Thunbergii. It grows readily from imported seeds; it can also be prop. by layering and by grafting on other stocks. Named for Mme. Coignet, of Lyons, France.
