30/40cm Pot Grown Irish Ivy
(Hedera hibernica)
The well-known Irish Ivy is a lovely, deep-green, fast growing species of Ivy, ideal for training against fences and walls.
About̴Ì?Pot Grown Irish Ivy
The lush, dark-green foliage on Irish Ivy can create a deep, bold canvas in your garden- meaning it is ideal when wanting to hide certain features, or cover little gaps. You can even use Ivy as a ground cover.
Make sure you pin any new Ivy shoots down, as this will then help them to root securely and quickly.
Please note, the sap can irritate skin, so be sure to wear gloves and long sleeves when dealing with this plant- especially if your skin is particularly sensitive.
Key Features
This 30/40cm pot grown Irish Ivy plant is fast-growing and will exceed 8m high in good conditions!
Hedera Hibernica can grow in many situations- whether that is in full sun, partial shade, or even full shade, and can tolerate both exposed and sheltered sites. However, it will develop best when planted in normal/moist soil.
- Growth height: Fast (40-60cm per year)
- Ideal height: 8m+ Tall
- Soil type: Normal, moist
- Exposure: Sheltered, exposed
- Aspect: Full sun, semi-shade, full shade
- Evergreen foliage? Yes
Pruning & Care
As it is pot grown, you can easily leave the plant in its pot for a few days/weeks before planting it. Just ensure you keep the plant well-watered, and it gets enough sun. Don't leave it for too long, however, as you don't want the roots becoming root bound.
We recommend giving Irish Ivy an annual trim just before new growth appears in Spring. As it has a spreading habit, this will keep the Ivy under control. You can easily remove large amounts of it, too, as the plant can easily and quickly recover with its fast growth rate.
