Not sure it'll colour up like that, unless you're in a really cold part of Sydney.

I have a few Parthenocissus semicordata, which are very similar and they colour up nicely here in western Sydney
unless you are on the coast then Virginia Creeper should be nice in Autumn.

I am in penrith, bloody hot in summer, and virginia creepers colour up very well here.
Theres a huge one at the orchard hills flower power that gets good colour.

My boston ivy however did not get good colour. I grow it on a colorbond fence that gets the punishing sun.
