New foliage is almost entirely cream becoming speckled green and then pale green as it ages. Slow to moderate growth, climbs or scrambles. Part shade seems best.
An attractive variety that seems to be fairly compact with it's slower growth rate. Some say best in sun but it can scorch so I'd keep it in at least some shade where it can brighten up a dull corner.
From Whitehouse Ivies 1980.
