Ornamental ivy, Hedera helix<\/em> \u2018Can Can\u2019<\/strong>, She seems to be wearing petticoats, like the girls in the French Cancan.<\/p>

The stems are thick, sometimes misshapen and\/or fasciate. The leaves seem to be threaded onto the stems. They are almost round, not lobed, but very crinkled, twisted, folded or even misshapen. The petiole is very short and the internodes minimal. The curled edge can sometimes take on a reddish colour in cold conditions.<\/p>

A rarity! Extraordinary foliage for pots. But beware, these leaves are sensitive to humidity. It is therefore more of an indoor ivy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        The question of circumstance<\/span><\/h2>

        What is a fasciation?<\/span><\/h3>

        Fasciation is a natural phenomenon resulting from a growth anomaly in a plant. This anomaly causes growth in bundles (hence the name fasciation). It can affect stems, flowers or fruit. In the case of ivy, fasciation generally involves the stems.\u00a0<\/p>

        This phenomenon is in no way detrimental to the plant. On the contrary, some fasciations significantly embellish the plant in question and make it all the more valuable, as this natural anomaly is quite rare. It is all the more difficult to cause, given that botanists are currently unable to clearly explain the cause(s).<\/p>

        So don't miss out on these natural curiosities!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
