Characteristics of creeper

1. Appearance characteristics

Ivy is a vine plant, and the biggest feature of this type of plant is its strong climbing ability. Its branches have tendrils with sticky suction cups at the tips that allow it to cling to rocks, walls, or trees. The leaves are alternate, green and hairless, turning red in autumn. It blooms in summer with small yellow-green flowers.

2. Growth habits

Ivy is distributed in many regions including eastern Asia and North America. It has a very strong adaptability and grows in a shady and humid environment, but it is not afraid of strong light. Neither cold nor lack of water affects its development.

3. Variety Introduction

Ivy is not a specific plant, but another name for many similar plants. For example, the stone dragon, red silk grass, red grape vine, etc. are all named after this. In my country, there are many types of creepers based on their morphology, including variegated creeper, three-leaf creeper, five-leaf creeper, etc.

4. Other Values

Ivy has many functions. It is not just an ornamental plant. It can also increase oxygen, lower temperature, reduce dust, reduce noise and so on. In addition, its rhizome has medicinal value and can relax tendons and stop bleeding. The fruit can also be used to make wine, which tastes great.
