The English Ivy, `Hedera helix,' is a strong growing, trailing variety that is perfect for baskets, containers or use as a groundcover. It is a classic variety from the Fall Magic collection, and produces fan-shaped, silvery green foliage. Its dense growth and abundant leaves will form a thick canopy just above the ground, to prevent sunlight from reaching other plants. Commonly used by homeowners, horticulturalists and landscaping contractors, the English Ivy is perfect anywhere a fast growing, low maintenance evergreen cover is desired.
The Royal Fern, `Osmunda regalis,' is a tall, deciduous fern that grows naturally on moist bluffs and ledges along streams, and is sometimes found growing in the water. The broad fronds feature large, separated leaflets that give this fern an almost pea-family appearance. Its spores are located in brown, tassel-like, fertile clusters on the tips of the fronds. This gives the plant the additional common name of flowering fern. This plant will also grow nicely in shaded borders, woodland gardens and native or wild plant gardens.
The Heuchera Amethyst Myst, `Heuchera x Amethys Myst,' is also known as the Coral Bell or Alumroot. This plant has unique, deep purple foliage that is dusted with silver, unlike the other burgundies of its family. During the spring, its light pink flowers will appear, remaining into the summer. However, these plants are more known for their lovely foliage than their blooms. They look especially great in borders, woodland edges, rock gardens or in mass to form a ground cover. This plant is perfect for a beginning gardener.
