Schone is a zonal in my yard.
Swedish Sweetheart
and a few other hybrid ivy pel known to be the
result of a zonal x ivy cross called Ice Carnival but I think it is
Anchievement.
I also have some of the dark colored ivies
(straight peltatums). Most of my Red, dark red, vermillon,
cherry-red, burgundy are the older varieties & some with harelquin in
them as well and rosebud.

Good afternoon, pel friends. I am a plant breeder. I
worked with Dr. Richard Craig at Penn State, who some of you may
know.
I am working with interspecific pels
--- within section Ciconium, and specifically zonal x ivy hybrids, or "hybrid
ivies" --- and have been having a difficult locating pre-2000 varieties.
In particular, I am looking for these varieties:
Achievement
Antoinette (aka Anton) Crozy
Barbette
Blue Spring
E. H. Trego
Elsi
Emerald
Forest Maid
Harlequin Pretty Girl
King of Hearts
Lara Delight
Lara Gem
Little Perky
Madeline Crozy
Queen of Hearts
Schone von Grenchen
and any other hybrid ivy pel known to be the result of
a zonal x ivy cross.
I am also interested in dark colored ivies (straight
peltatums). Red, dark red, vermillon, cherry-red, burgundy. Most
of older varieties seem to have disappeared.
If you know of a pel specialist who still has any of
these varieties, please let me know. Thanks.
