Hedera helix 'Parsley Crested'

Hedera helix 'Parsley Crested' is an unusual cultivar of English ivy with finely curled, ruffled evergreen leaves that create exceptional texture throughout the year. 

Her leaves are broad, three rounded lobes and almost circular, with wavy, ruffled margins that give them the crinkled appearance of flat-leaf parsley — hence the name :) 

In milder seasons the foliage is a fresh, well-veined mid-green; come winter, the stems and veins flush a superb purple-red that makes the plant seem newly lit from within. 

Suitable as a climber or ground cover, it thrives in partial to full shade and is well suited to woodland, cottage and low-maintenance gardens.
