Hedera helix 'Thorndale' is an evergreen groundcover and climber highly valued for its glossy dark green foliage and great adaptability. This English ivy variety has a creeping or climbing habit depending on its use, making it ideal for quickly covering the ground, or adorning an embankment, a low wall, or a shady wall. Its dense and decorative foliage remains attractive all year round, offering excellent weed control and soil protection against erosion. Undemanding, it tolerates shade as well as partial shade and adapts to various types of well-drained soils. Very hardy for the Quebec climate, 'Thorndale' is a reliable choice for sustainable landscaping, difficult areas, and low-maintenance gardens, while adding a touch of persistent greenery.
