Product description
Hedera White Ivy plant is a clinging evergreen vine with attractive light green leaves, whose edges are margined with white colour. This good houseplant is native to Europe, northern Africa and western Asia. Young Ivy plants can be used to hang over edges, hanging baskets, window boxes or patio pots.
Ivy plants are known for their rampant growth ideal for covering a north wall, fence or decorative ground cover to suppress weeds. Hedera White Ivy is a perfect choice for a low maintenance landscape garden. It grows long and lush foliage trailing up the trees and structures.
Provide shelter from cold dry winds and plant it in well-drained fertile soil. A monthly feed of low nitrogen fertiliser will ensure healthy growth but do not fertilise in winters, as the plant will be in dormant stage.
Hedera White Ivy bears yellow-green flowers that flourish in clusters in autumn. These flowers provide nectar to the bees and develop into blue-black berries that ripen only in late winters.
These berries are mildly toxic, and other plant parts can cause mild skin irritation, so one needs to handle with care. White Ivy will look gorgeous in container pots and hanging baskets. This Ivy plant is sure to act as a decorative addition to your indoor garden or outdoors in a landscape garden.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Prune regularly to control growth and prevent it from becoming invasive, especially when grown near structures or trees.
How to Water
Water Hedera regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, water moderately, letting the soil dry slightly between watering. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Hedera in well-draining soil in partial to full shade, although it can tolerate sun with adequate moisture. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball, place the plant, and fill with soil. Space 30-45cm apart for ground cover. Mulch to retain moisture and reduce weeds.
