Hedera helix 'Marengo'
One of the most eye-catching ivy varieties available, featuring large, leathery leaves splashed with rich shades of green and irregular creamy-white margins. Its striking camouflage-like variegation creates year-round interest, making it an elegant choice for hanging baskets, containers, trellises, or as a lush groundcover in the landscape.
A vigorous grower with a versatile trailing or climbing habit, 'Marengo' can spill gracefully from pots or quickly cover vertical supports when given something to climb. In warmer climates it thrives outdoors, while in cooler regions it makes a beautiful, easy-care houseplant. Mature outdoor plants may occasionally produce clusters of small greenish-yellow flowers followed by dark berries, though flowering is uncommon on indoor or regularly pruned specimens.

Spread: 3–6 feet
Habit: Trailing, Climbing
Exposure: Full Sun to Part Shade (Bright Indirect Light Indoors)
USDA Zones: 5–11
