Needlepoint Ivy produces small, fine-lobed leaves - noticeably more delicate and finely divided than standard English Ivy, giving it a lighter, more intricate appearance. The smaller leaf scale makes it better suited to detailed planting, smaller hanging baskets, and positions where the standard ivy would look too coarse. Tolerates shade as well as any ivy. Part to full shade. Adaptable soils. Allow soil to partially dry between waterings. Trim to control spread.
