English ivy is a decorative plant, which is evergreen. Its leaves look very beautiful, so people plant it in their homes. Some people even use it to decorate the walls of the room, but if its leaves and berries are swallowed, it can cause problems like stomach ache, weakness, excessive salivation, vomiting, diarrhea. Some people may have skin allergies, so if there are pets or small children in the house then avoid applying it.
