Help - Creepers/Vines in Regard to Tree Reports

[Treespasser]

Hi all,

 

To put a long story short, I've been instructed to produce a tree condition survey for a client for all trees on site,
as well as this they've asked me to comment on a Virginia Creeper that covers most of their building.
In all honesty I havn't had much experience of creepers in the arb world, especially commenting on one in a report.
Do they come under Arboriculture or Horticulture? I have to admit they haven't cropped up in any of my training from college or PTI.
Has anyone else had this issue or anything related? 

I'm going to add a caveat in the report stating something along the lines of what's written above.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

‘Looks lovely but I’m not a structural engineer’ should do it.

Keep it on the walls and out of the roof, it’ll lift tiles and bugger everything up.

 

Fine on walls.
