DESCRIPTION

„Sulphur Heart“ is an attractive, big leaf version of Persian ivy. The leaves are upto 15x15 cm large, heart shaped. It has irregular splashes of golden yellow, pale green and lime green colours with dark green 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 but its yellow shades will be richer if some sun is allowed for at least a part of the day. It prefers alkaline, moist, semi-fertile soil that is well drained. Fully hardy to min. -25°C (USDA zone 6).
