Ivory Jade Wintercreeper is a dense spreading evergreen perennial that creates a bushy mat of glossy variegated green leaves with ivory margins that are tinged pink in winter. Inconspicuous white flowers are sparse if even present when grown as a groundcover, but more abundant if allowed to climb. Grows best in moist, well-drained soils. Can be an aggressive spreader, especially if allowed to climb.
