This is very helpful, thank you!
American Bittersweet seems to be confused with Oriental Bittersweet as my local greenhouse owner explained that all Bittersweet is invasive and should be eradicated!😢😢 I thought that American Bittersweet was once protected in
Indiana, is that true? How can I grow my own American variety?
It is a complicated situation. We have both American and also exotic invasive Asian bittersweet plus hybridization is happening. Source American bittersweet from nurseries specializing in native species. Indiana Native Plant Society is a good start point.
