Vines - Part 5 - Ivy
A lot of plants are called "ivy", but only those belonging to the genus Hedera are really ivy. Most of us know ivy as a rather rampant and somewhat boring evergreen ground or building cover, but once you discover the shapes, forms and colors of ivy, be warned, it can become addictive. As a vine for shade, it is unsurpassed. I have lots of photos for you, so the page may be slow to load.

Vines - Part 2
Vines come in all sorts of types, sizes and vigor. There are annual vines that you plant each year from seed and woody vines, some of whom make a statement all year around. Some vines have Attila The Hun tendencies and will take over the world (or at least your patch of it) if not watched and some require no end of coaxing to keep alive and flourishing. Some vines do very well in shade; some require sun to thrive and some will grow in shade, but not flower well. The variety is almost endless; here are a few more that you may know and grow or that may tempt you.
