Fallopia baldschuanica (syn. Fallopia aubertii, Polygonum baldschuanicum) is a species of flowering plant in the knotweed family known by several common names, including Bukhara fleeceflower, Chinese fleecevine, and silver lace vine. It is native to Asia, particularly western China and Tibet, and it can be found growing wild in parts of Europe and North and Central America as an introduced species. It is grown as an ornamental plant for its flower-laced vines, and it is a fast-growing plant that has the capacity to become an invasive species.

This is a vining plant with woody, climbing stems known to reach ten meters in maximum length. The pointed oval or nearly triangular leaves are up to ten centimeters long and borne on petioles. The inflorescence is an open array of narrow, branching, drooping or spreading clusters of flowers, each cluster reaching a maximum of 15 centimeters long. Flowers hang on short pedicels. Each five-lobed flower is just under a centimeter long and white to greenish or pale pink, sometimes turning bright pink as the fruit develops.
