Hedera canariensis - Canary ivy
Fast-growing vigorous evergreen groundcover, self-clinging wall climber, with much bigger leaves than English ivy and better suited to warmer climates, as you would suppose from the common names.
It's also super-cold-hardy so one to try in southern states that get both frost and heatwaves.
