Plant Specifications
This bulk pack contains 48 individual Hedera helix 'Glacier' plants, each supplied in 9cm diameter pots. Plants arrive at heights between 10-25cm, ready for immediate planting in your garden or landscape project. The variegated foliage features distinctive green leaves with silver-white veining that adds visual interest throughout the year.
Growing Conditions and Care
Hedera helix 'Glacier' adapts to various growing conditions, making it suitable for both sunny and shaded locations. This ivy tolerates any soil type, from clay to sandy substrates, and establishes quickly once planted. The fast-growing nature means you'll achieve full coverage faster than many alternative ground covers. Prune as needed to maintain desired shape and size - this plant responds well to trimming and can be shaped to your requirements.
Uses in the Garden
The 48-plant pack provides excellent coverage for larger areas. Use as ground cover to suppress weeds and create a lush carpet effect. Plant along borders for defined edges with year-round interest. Create living hedges by training plants vertically on supports or walls. The variegated foliage provides contrast against darker plants and adds brightness to shaded areas.
Low-Maintenance Landscaping
Once established, Hedera helix 'Glacier' requires minimal intervention. The hardy nature means it withstands various weather conditions without special protection. Water during establishment, then the plant becomes drought-tolerant. No fertilizer requirements make this an economical choice for large-scale planting projects.
Please note: Plants are living products and may therefore differ from the photo and description. Minor natural imperfections can occur. These often recover in your garden.
