GREEN-LEAVED VARIETIES. 
1 Acuta (syn. Amurensis ), large handsome 
leaves, often reaching 5 inches in 
length; with a little shelter forms an 
excellent companion to dentata. 
20 azorica, foliage very similar to that of 
the Irish Ivy, has a very fine appear- 
ance in mass on a sheltered wall. 
22 Beauty of Huntingdon (syn. Campbelli ), 
leaves heart-shaped, of medium size, 
quick-growing and attractive. 
25 Caenwoodiana, deeply, lobed leaves of 
medium size, one of the best for resist- 
ing smoke, a quick grower, filling in 
well as it travels; very distinct, 
excellent for walls and arbours, neat 
habit, favourite for carpeting. 
27 canariensis (Irish), the common Ivy for 
walls, rapid grower. In pots, 2 to 3 
feet, 4/6 and 6/- per doz. ; 3 to 4 feet, 
6/- per doz.; 4 to 5 feet, 1/- to 1/6 
each, 12/- to 15/- per doz., larger 
plants, 2/6, 3/6 and 5/- each. 
40 conglomerata, small twisted overlapp- 
ing foliage, the most compact Ivy in 
cultivation, but a very slow grower; 
good for rockery work and for pots. 
47 dentata, the largest green-leaved variety 
of a sumptuous glossy rich deep 
colour; leaves occasionally attain 
a length of 8 to 9 inches. 
50 Donerailensis, dainty, deeply lobed 
foliage, with prettily sinuate margins 
a slow grower but quite hardy, foliage 
purplish-bronze in winter. 
52 Emerald Green, medium-sized, rich green 
leaves, dense grower, unequalled for 
filling in under trees, most suitable 
for graves ; neat and compact, grows 
well over a stump, useful for carpet- 
ing and bordering. 
58 Glymil, leaves large, glossy, and some- 
what heart-shaped; perhaps the 
densest grower of all, and quite hardy, 
best on a low stump on account of its 
shrubby appearance. 
60 gracilis, medium leaves of typical form 
very similar in habit and growth to 
Emerald Green, stands frost perfectly, 
excellent not only for walls, but also 
for filling in under trees, for carpeting, 
and for borders. 
Irish, see canariensis. 
87 minima, distinct and interesting, each 
shoot forming a dense column of small 
triangular horizontal leaves; a -very 
slow grower, suitable for pot- work or 
rockery. 
98 palmata, leaf of medium size, fills up 
well, very clean and bright, but some 
what susceptible to smoke; twigs 
highly decorative when cut, does well 
in the country if not too much ex- 
posed. 
102 pennsylvanica (syn. lusitanicus digilata; 
viti folia), very elegant large palmate 
leaves, useful for carpeting or for a 
sheltered wall. 
104 purpurea (syn. New Bronze), small 
typically-formed leaves, a good 
grower, hardy and smoke-resisting; 
leaves of purplish-bronze colour, best 
developed on a sunny wall; good for 
boxes and Christmas decorations, the 
best Ivy with bronze foliage. 
107 Roegneriana (syn. colchic^), heart-shaped 
leaves, about 4_inches long; requires 
sheltered wall, and is susceptible to 
smoke; a very strong, fast grower, 
with a cleaner, brighter appearance 
than almost any other. 
108 rhomboides obovata, small thick, some- 
what heart-shaped leaves; a fine 
dense grower, hardy, and not affected 
by smoke; leaves in autumn assume 
a rich bronzy hue; useful for low 
walls and for forming a dense bright 
bush; gathers readily round a stake. 
1 10 sagittsefolia, arrowhead-like leaves, over 
medium size, quite hardy, of medium 
growth, forms a dense covering; very 
distinct. 
114 slngulare, medium-size foliage, slightly 
glaucous, centre of leaf with small 
golden blotch; similar in habit and 
mode of growth to the ordinary hedge 
ivy, but when growing rapidly loses 
the characteristic blotch. 
117 taurica, medium-size, dense foliage, 
clings most tenaciously to its support, 
hardy and smoke-resisting, one of the 
best. 
131 Wlllseana (syn. nigra), large glossy 
leaves that in winter become almost 
black; a moderate grower, but fills up 
well, perfectly hardy and smoke- 
resisting.
