Botanical ivy, Hedera helix f. poetarum<\/strong><\/em>, is also known as \u00abivy of the poets\u00bb<\/strong> because it was considered more graceful and was therefore appreciated as such by poets and romantic botanists in the 19th century. It originates from the Caucasus. This is the adult form, which produces small orange fruits.<\/p>

The leaves of the adult form are entire, oval to lanceolate, with a wedge-shaped base.<\/p>

It has a bushy, shrubby habit. This is a good variety for pots and window boxes, or for isolated planting in rock gardens, for example.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
