Hedera helix ‘Glacier’


English Ivy

 USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 7.305.200


There are many selections of English Ivy, and all are useful evergreen groundcovers or climbing vines. This variety has small leaves in a delightful mix of dark and grey green, with a creamy-white margin. Often grown as a houseplant, but hardier than one might expect. Excellent in containers or mixed tubs. Stems will root into the ground as they creep, and new plants can be easily moved in early spring. Plan on planting from 3 to 10 plants per square yard (or meter) in larger areas. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten/May cause skin allergy.
