Ivy Gold Dust

Introducing Ivy ‘Gold Dust’ — your new trailing treasure. This glitzy little plant looks like it’s been dusted with fairy gold (or maybe just got into some glitter, who’s to say?). With green-and-gold variegated leaves and a vining habit that just won’t quit, Gold Dust brings the drama without the maintenance. Let it trail, climb, or casually cascade—it’s here to make your space look effortlessly put-together.

And yes, it’s as easygoing as it is gorgeous.

Benefits:

Air-Purifying: Filters out the funk so you can breathe easy.

Fast-Growing: Spills over shelves in record time.

Low Maintenance: Basically thrives on neglect.

Year-Round Color: Evergreen with a golden twist.

Care Instructions:

Bright, indirect light is best—but it can tolerate some shade like a seasoned wallflower. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry (no need to overthink it). It appreciates some humidity but won’t file a complaint if it’s dry. Pinch back the tips if you want it bushier, or let it run wild—it’s cool either way.

Décor Tips:

Let it trail from a hanging basket, climb up a trellis, or spill over the edge of a bookshelf like a glamorous green waterfall. Looks especially stunning in gold or white pots that bring out its variegation.

Décor Vibes:

Classic Charm: Like an old-money garden party.

Fairycore Fantasy: Whimsical, magical, golden.

Refined Cottage: Elegant but a little wild at heart.

Ideal Spaces:

Living Room: Cascades like a leafy chandelier.

Bathroom: Thrives in steamy settings with spa energy.

Kitchen: Adds a soft touch to tile and stainless steel.
