Polish variety selected by Dariusz Wyrwicki. Large (8-12 cm) mostly 5-lobed, evergreen, leathery, green leaves with creamy marble variegation. A good-growing, spreading and quite hardy plant. It clings to the support by means of adventitious roots and can scale a wall. It reaches a height of over 200 m, with about 1m of annual growth. It doesn’t like dry or acidic soil. It thrives in partial shade but can also grow in sun. The variegation is most prominent in well-lit sites. Particularly useful for creating covers, and growing up trees and arbours.
