Hedera hibernica, or Irish Ivy, as it is commonly known, is ideal for covering walls and fences. This lush, climbing ivy creates a year round, evergreen feature, perfect for hiding unappealing surfaces.
Water ivy grown as houseplants regularly during the growing season, providing a balanced liquid fertiliser each month. Keep moist during the winter months.
Plants may be pruned at any time of the year to restrict growth. People with sensitive skin should wear gloves when handling ivy as its sap can be an irritant.
