Description
Iran ivy - Hedera pastuchovii
In a nutshell
Le lierre d’Iran, Hedera pastuchovii, est une des variétés botaniques de lierre. On le trouve principalement en Turquie, dans le Caucase juqu’en Afghanistan.
Its leaves are triangular in shape, without lobes or with two discrete lobes at the base. They are clearly longer than they are wide. The leaves are attractively veined with grayish veins.
The leaf blade is a shiny dark green with a fairly thick texture. The underside is olive green to light green.
The stems are slender and not very branched. They have the particularity of burying themselves in the soil to emerge further out as suckers.
This quality is ideal for dressing old trees with very dense root systems.
More ivy from Iran
There are very few cultivars of Iranian ivy. Only two are known:
- Hedera pastuchovii 'Ann Ala', with attractive veined foliage
- Hedera pastuchovii 'Lagodeckhi', glossy foliage turning slightly red in cold weather.
Botanists distinguish a subspecies of this ivy, endemic to the island of Cyprus: Hedera pastuchovii subsp. cypria, commonly known as Cyprus ivy.
