| Here's an ivy that, unlike the 99.99% rest of my collection, never is moved outside.
Can you tell me the scientific (Latin) name for it, please?
Thanks much, Jeff |

| I believe that it's one of the variegated needlepoint English ivies, Hedera helix (digitata). There are numerous cultivars of this form. At first I thought it was the Glacier English Ivy, but the leaves seem to be a little too 'pointy'. ;-) I never take my indoor plants outside, either. We are much in the minority in this forum! Pretty stained glass panel. |

| Hey Cactus...At first glace I thought it was Algerian variegata, then Needlepoint came to mind. It's a beautiful Ivy. I found this link, which may or may not help. Since yours has 3 lobes, the species can be narrowed down. http://www.plant-care.com/hedera-i228.html Toni |
