Notes
'Gloire de Marengo' hedera (Hedera algeriensis 'Gloire de Marengo') is a vine for ground cover, borders, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist soil of most types. It is evergreen and drought tolerant, and birds visit it. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. You can let it climb or spread across the ground.
Pairs well with Bigleaf hydrangea, Bluebell, and Greig's tulip.
