Plant details
Crossing the dramatic Fatsia japonica with the handsome ivy Hedera hibernica in 1910 resulted in the splendid bi-generic hybrid shrub X Fatshedera lizei, often grown as a houseplant but equally successful as a shade-tolerant evergreen garden plant. It is best grown in the open in seaside gardens, or against warm walls and in sheltered corners inland. Hard frost can injure leaves, but plants recover if the roots are safe from freezing. The stems may be tied to wires or trellis to produce a climbing background plant. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
