Description

Hedera canariensis

Canary Island Ivy is an evergreen climber with large deep green leaves. A showy and fast-growing climber, the leaves are initially yellow-green then dark green as they age, with beautiful, red stems. It also comes in variegated (two-coloured) forms. As Canary Island Ivy is originally a tropical plant, growth can be damaged in a hard frost but will re-shoot in Spring. Otherwise, it is very hardy, making it popular as a climber or groundcover. Grows best in full sun to partial shade. One use of Canary Island Ivy that is seeing a resurgence in popularity is in creating an "ivy lawn", where the ivy is mass planted and used as a ground cover for a garden bed or large area. 4"/10cm pot size.

Hardenbergia violacea

Hardenbergia Happy Wanderer is the most well known variety of this popular native climber. With its vigorous climbing habit it is a useful plant for covering fences and similar objects or used as a spreading ground cover. Its leaves are glossy green in colour and the flowers are a vibrant rich violet-mauve in colour. They are borne profusely from winter to early spring. Likes a full sun to part shade position. 8"/20cm pot size.
