Hedera helix 'Mint Kolibri'
Common Name: English Ivy
Hedera helix ‘Mint Kolibri’ is a compact, evergreen ivy valued for its small, delicate leaves and soft mint-green and creamy-white variegation. The foliage emerges fresh and bright, maintaining its attractive coloring year-round, while flowers are inconspicuous and rarely seen in landscape use. Its trailing to climbing habit makes it useful as a groundcover, container plant, or for training on walls and structures.

Can be pruned at any time to control size and shape. Tolerates a wide range of conditions, including shade and urban environments. Avoid overly wet soils. Note: can be aggressive in some areas—manage spread as needed.
