The juvenile form of the Poet's Ivy. This will provide creeping/climbing growth with typical green foliage. When it becomes adult the berries will be the desired yellow. Patience!

The advantages of producing this juvenile form is that the cuttings root much more easily and faster, the disadvantage is that you have to wait a while for the plant to establish and produce it's adult growth form.  Once it has achieved this more bushy growth flowers and then berries will be produced in due course.

Yellow berried forms of English ivy can be found occasionally in the wild.
