Fatshedera Lizei

Fatshedera lizei, or Tree Ivy, is a versatile and fast-growing evergreen vine that combines the attractive features of its parent plants, the ivy (Hedera) and the fatsia (Fatsia japonica). This unique hybrid has large, glossy, dark green, lobed leaves that provide a bold, tropical look to gardens and landscapes. It grows vigorously, reaching heights of 10-20 feet (3-6 meters) and can be trained to climb walls, trellises, or fences, making it perfect for adding vertical interest and lush greenery to your outdoor space.

Preferring partial to full shade, Fatshedera lizei is ideal for shaded gardens or areas where other plants may struggle. It thrives in well-drained soil and is relatively low-maintenance once established, making it a great option for gardeners seeking a low-effort, high-impact plant. Hardy in USDA zones 7-10, this plant is perfect for creating a tropical or Mediterranean feel in the landscape, whether used as ground cover, a climber, or as a decorative foliage plant. Fatshedera lizei provides year-round greenery and a sophisticated, evergreen presence that brightens up any space.
