PERSONAL THOUGHTS ON THIS PLANT:
Fig Ivy is ideal for covering fences or walls. It is especially useful covering brick and stone walls, because Fig Ivy's tentacles will not damage the walls mortar the way most other climbing plants will. Fig Ivy can add a lot of interest to otherwise blank walls, and is excellent in small spaces.
