Aristolochia macrophylla--Dutchman's Pipe
Hardiness Zones: 4 to 8
Height: 30 ft Spread: 30 ft Form: irregular
Type: vine
Annual Growth Rate: more than 18 inches
Flowers: Brown
Comments: Dutchman's Pipe is an extremely vigorous vine
that is often grown because its large, heart-shaped leaves
make an excellent screen. The flowers (Vis. 1) are shaped
like a Meerschaum pipe but are not highly ornamental. The
plant adapts to a wide range of growing conditions. The
plant is native to the Eastern U.S. and grows best in full
sun or partial shade.
