| (=‘Oro di Bogliasco’) This is a beautiful selection of English Ivy, valued for its heart-shaped green leaves, boldly centered with brilliant golden-yellow. It can be used either as a spreading groundcover, or allowed to climb up walls, fences or trees. A stunning variety, and surprisingly hardy. Remove any all-green shoots that might appear. If using as a groundcover, the growth tips should be pinched in June for the first couple of years to force plants to branch out. Space at 3 to 10 plants per square yard. Evergreen. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten/May cause skin allergy.
