English ivy is a climbing evergreen vine common in the temperate climates of Europe and Asia and also introduced into the U.S. The woody stem, growing to a length of over 50 feet, bears air roots along its length which enable the plant to cling to smooth surfaces. The leathery, glossy, dark green leaves are variously three- to seven-lobed. The small, green or yelloish-green flowers appear in umbels from August to October. The fruit is a black berry, which ripens in winter.
