Baltica, a type of English Ivy, is the perfect solution when you need a carpet of evergreen color to cover a blank canvas quickly and thoroughly with virtually maintenance-free performance. Ideally suited as a lawn alternative, for coverage beneath large trees, and as a filler on bald spots where grasses refuse to grow, Baltica is also very popular as a climbing vine (roots attach to most surfaces) where it paints buildings, fences, trellises and walls with color creating an instant vintage feeling with the added bonus of reduced cooling costs.

From topiaries to window planters, Baltica can be counted on to brighten shady areas with color, tolerate drought, salt and foot traffic, and control erosion on slopes. With this hardy personality, the only thing you have to do is decide how many plants you need.
