Default Atlanta's Ivy


wrote in message
oups.com...
I recently visited Atlanta, Georgia and liked the looks of all the ivy
growing in the yards. Especially on the hillsides, as my north
Florida home has some hills and shady areas I'd like to cover up. I
took a few cuttings from an Atlanta city park and now have them
soaking in a glass of water.

What type of ivy is it?


If it's kudzu, you probably committed a crime.

Should I plant this ivy in my yard?

Will it grow here in north Florida?

Is this ivy invasive?

Answers/opinions are appreciated.
