Nursery contributed plant descriptions

An English Ivy with a prominent splash of gold in the center of each deep green leaf. Red stems are showy through the winter. Slow to establish, but then grows rapidly. Zones 7-9, but in sun and with immaculate drainage and protection from winter wind will grow successfully in zone 6. We have a large colony growing along the edge of Lake Amanda which is definitely robust.
