📍 Zone 8/9 Tip: Plant year-round — ivy is cold-hardy and keeps its leaves through winter.

🌞 Growing Tips:

• Plant in partial to full shade for best color retention

• Water consistently until established, then allow to dry slightly between waterings

• Prune to shape or train along trellises, fences, or topiary forms
