Our 28 year old clump of Hedera rhombea ‘Cheju’ is looking fabulous with an ice coating in late January. This is an adult form of English ivy that forms a woody compact shrub.

Is that cultivar from Cheju Island off the coast of Korea ?
Yes, same Cheju Island. When we visited in 1997, a tree had fallen in our path, that had also taken down an adult ivy. This was a cutting rooted from that plant.
