creeping fig
Wall-hugging vine
Creeping fig is a climbing vine native to East Asia, grown for its small, heart-shaped leaves that cling flat against walls and surfaces.
Unlike many climbing plants, it attaches directly to masonry, brick, or wood without support structures: The creeping fig had completely covered the garden wall.
Popular as both an outdoor climber and a trailing houseplant.
