Yes it is easy to grow. Mine is planted underneath a viburnum. I don't know how many shoots it has, but there are vines popping up through the shrub in many places. This will be it's 3rd summer in that spot. While it isn't as floriferous as some of the other viticellas, it is beautiful and certainly worth owning.

I just noticed that last year the VV was blooming the same time as the Viburnum. This year, the Viburnum is well past its bloom and the VV isn't even close to blooming.
