I would love to grow that Maple but alas, no room. :o( The ground cover amongst your Violets is Wandering Jew...a weed. Can cause skin allergies on dogs. It is hard to get rid of because anything left will grow back. Vigilance is needed. The garage wall has Ficus pumila, creeping fig. It is pretty and useful but if not kept under strict control, can turn into a monster....you might want to Google information about it before the trouble begins. The small plant with the shiny leaves is Coprosma. Considered a weed in Melbourne. An untidy bush that is hard to keep to a decent shape and reseeds everywhere. I would pull it out now while it's small. Sorry to be so negative, just being honest. Dee.

Your plant, one of my favorites) is Bush Ivy (Fatshedera lizei). It is important to understand how it grows to use it correctly. Unlike other ivies, it does not have little roots that cling. It must be supported (espalied) on a wall, fence or pergola. As it matures in your zone it will send out branches that could be 12' long and it becomes very heavy so needs a strong support. It can be pruned back and controlled any time of the year. I have grown it on a fence using tiers of grape wire supended through screw eyes and the branches afixed to the wire with single wrap velcro. Also, the entrance to my garden in a former home was a strong arch with Bush Ivy secured to it. In the late winter you will note quite a bit of yellowing and dropping leaves. Normal situation not to worry about. Hopefully you can find a growing situation for this plant. It is a beauty.

Yes, the painted one looks like, maybe hybrid because I think I see some of the bottom leaves are more rounded (crossed with Gasteria, Gasteraloe?) than the top leaves' tips (more pointed).

Here are better photos. the top one is the stems, looks like they flower pink or purple. I bought this recently and it is in bad shape. Trying to nurse it back. Any help on how to care for this would be helpful as well. Thank you
