Description
The Hedera helix 'Camouflage' Ivy is native to Europe and commonly called Pittsburgh Ivy, English Ivy or just Ivy. This evergreen vine or ground cover has small to medium ivy or lobed shaped variegated leaves with a heart-shaped base. Its is easyly distinguishable from the Variegata Ivy as the Camouflage leaf is heavily variegated where as the Variegata has a solid green leaf with a cream border. It attaches itself by aerial rootlets to walls and other surfaces such as rockeries or trees. The Camouflage Ivy is easy to grow, hardy and versatile. It can tolerate full sun to shade, partial shade is best for hotter climates. The Camouflage Ivy likes moderate water, allowing the topsoil to start to dry between waterings. Because of the Camouflage Ivy's climbing and vining habits, they look great in a hanging basket, greenwall or trailing down a feature wall.
