The only things I tie up are my climbers. Roses, clematis,
honeysuckle
and a broad leaf ivy. I can't remember its name



Could the ivy be Hedera colchica, or a cultivar of same?

I don't know but I will take a photo for you. It has a large leaf,
not
at all like the smaller leaved ones I have in other places.

Here is a pic of my ivy.

Paddy's Pride? We have it on a wall of the house and it's a large leaf
variety.


I will take your word for it. I have no idea!




Well, Hedera 'Paddy's Pride' is another name for Hedera colchica 'Sulphur
Heart', and it certainly looks like yours. So I can be pleased I got the
colchica bit, and Sacha can be pleased she got the cultivar. Under the
name of 'Sulphur Heart', it is very widely available which increases the
likelihood.


Probably) Does it require any special attention or is it easy to take
care of. It seems to have done ok left to its own devices so far)
