A native of eastern Asia, sometimes cultivated as an ornamental annual vine and locally established in disturbed ground. First collected in 1914 in St. Clair Co., but not found since 1952.
Though not so yet in Michigan, this is an agressive spreader southward.
The name Humulus scandens (Lour.) Merr. is used for this species in some floras and, if it actually applies to this plant, would be the older name.
