Description of the plant:
Dentata Variegata is a showy large-leaved variety of Persian ivy with varigated foliage. The evergreen leaves are about 12x12 cm large, heart shaped, pale green, mottled white, with rich creamy-white margins. Its aerial roots cling to any surface (support). It grows faster than common ivy and reliably forms dense walls of varigated foliage. This evergreen climber is ideal as a complement plant for any evergreen arrangement.
It will grow almost anywhere, however, the contrast between light and dark parts of the leaves will contrast more in shaded locations. It prefers alkaline, moist, semi-fertile soil that is well drained. Fully hardy to min. -27°C (USDA zone 5b).
