Vitis balansana is a climbing grape-family vine native to southern China and northern Vietnam, found in both forest shade and sunny shrubland. It is a wild species rarely grown in gardens, so care is best approached like other hardy wild grapes.
Vitis balansana is a species of climbing vine in the grape family native to temperate and tropical Asia. Its native range encompasses Vietnam and three southeastern provinces in China (Guangdong, Guangxi and the island of Hainan) The habitat of V. balansana varies; it has adapted to living under forest cover, and in sun-soaked shrubland valleys, at between 200 and 800 meters.
