Vitis coignetiae
Also called Vine, Crimson Gloryvine
Crimson glory vine (Vitis coignetiae) is a vigorous, deciduous, woody climbing vine from East Asia, grown mainly for its huge leaves that turn crimson-orange in autumn. It needs a sturdy support and a sunny to part-shaded site with room to spread.
Vitis coignetiae, commonly called crimson glory vine, is a species of grapevine belonging to the family Vitaceae. Is native to the temperate climes of Asia and can be found in the Russian Far East (Sakhalin), Korea, and Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku). It was described botanically in 1883. It is called meoru (머루) in Korean and yama-budo (ヤマブドウ) in Japanese.
The plant contains the stilbenoids ε-viniferin and rhapontigenin.
In East Asia it is grown as an ornamental plant for its crimson autumn foliage; and as a traditional medicine.
