Description
This image displays a dense patch of Canary Islands Ivy (Hedera canariensis) with its characteristic large, glossy, heart-shaped to lobed leaves. While not a bonsai specimen in this image, this vigorous evergreen vine is known for its climbing and spreading habit. If trained as a bonsai, its vining nature might lend itself to a cascade style.
