Silverlace vine

Hello to all. I live in Southern Ontario Canada and have a large trellis with Silverlace vine on it. It's out in the open, and the soil is very sandy. This plant has been there for about 5 years and doesn't do very well. It's supposed to grow any where in any kind of soil !

What can I do to figure out what's going on with it ?

Thanks

Mike

I don't know much about this vine - but if your soil is sandy, I'll bet you don't have a lot of natural nutrients in there. Find out if it needs more nitrogen or acid, test your soil (if you haven't already) and keep some fertlizer around. See if that helps?

And keep an eye on it once it takes off; it's on most peoples invasive list...
