Notes
'Yellow Ripple' common ivy (Hedera helix 'Yellow Ripple') is a vine for groundcover, wall cover, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to wet, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It grows at a rapid rate and stays evergreen all year. It also tolerates drought and salt. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.
