I can say that about the clinging ivy that many try to get rid of from their gardens But not me I am making good use of it.a It works as ground cover where the ground needs to be hidden from view I have a few pots - artifacts - that have this clinging ivy. Green against the orange is sure a beauty for the eyes. Not just a beauty for the eyes but my camera wanted me to capture it too. Sharing it with you

They are looking beautiful. If I am not wrong, people get rid of them because they are poisonous. Isn't it?

Poisonous for whom. May be pets. But so far none of our pets have been affected.

In some places it is useful and it covers the ground. When it climbs on the fence it causes damages on the long run. Very hard to get rid of it.

@LadyDuck It is a parasite sucking off from the trunks of trees it climbs on

@allknowing Unfortunately yes, it is climbing on the holly tree, I have to cut it at the base to avoid that it kills the tree.

It has the tendency to spread where it is not required.

When there are no flowers these artifacts bring colour to the garden

Thank you We must have artifacts in gardens as it is not always that there will be flowers.
