Hedera canariensis, known as Algerian Ivy, is a vigorous evergreen vine or groundcover with large, glossy leaves and reddish stems. It climbs using aerial rootlets, reaching heights of 30 feet, or spreads as a dense mat. Ideal for covering walls or slopes, it thrives in moist soil and prefers partial to full shade. This species is more heat-tolerant than English ivy, making it a popular choice for Mediterranean and coastal landscapes. Its lush foliage provides excellent year-round coverage.
