Hedera
Hedera, commonly called ivy (plural ivies), is a genus of 12–15 species of evergreen climbing or ground-creeping woody plants in the family Araliaceae, native to western, central and southern Europe, Macaronesia, northwestern Africa and across central-southern Asia east to Japan and Taiwan.
Description
On level ground they remain creeping, not exceeding 5–20 cm height, but on suitable surfaces for climbing, including trees, natural rock outcrops or man-made structures such as quarry rock faces or built masonry and wooden structures, they can climb to at least 30 m above the ground. Ivies have two leaf types, with palmately lobed juvenile leaves on creeping and climbing stems and unlobed cordate adult leaves on fertile flowering stems exposed to full sun, usually high in the crowns of trees or the tops of rock faces, from 2 m or more above ground. The juvenile and adult shoots also differ, the former being slender, flexible and scrambling or climbing with small aerial roots to affix the shoot to the substrate (rock or tree bark), the latter thicker, self-supporting and without roots. The flowers are greenish-yellow with five small petals; they are produced in umbels in autumn to early winter and are very rich in nectar. The fruit is a greenish-black, dark purple or (rarely) yellow berry 5–10 mm diameter with one to five seeds, ripening in late winter to mid-spring. The seeds are dispersed by birds which eat the berries.
FG (restaurant)
FG (formerly Ivy) is a restaurant in Rotterdam, Netherlands. It is a fine dining restaurant that was awarded one Michelin star for the period 2010-2013, and two stars since 2014.
GaultMillau awarded the restaurant 17.5 out of 20 points.
Head chef of FG is François Geurds, who opened the restaurant in 2009. Geurds, formerly a sous chef in The Fat Duck of Heston Blumenthal, uses Molecular gastronomy in his kitchen.
Name dispute
Due to a lost court case with Caprice Holding, owner of the European trademark for the name The Ivy, Geurds was forced to change the name of his restaurant. Geurds' argumentation that The Ivy and Ivy only served their local markets in respectively London and Rotterdam, were dismissed by the judge. The new name of the restaurant became FG and was unveiled on 13 June 2013.

Plot
Ivy Lexton (Joan Fontaine) is a woman with a hunger to seduce men. Though she already has a husband, Jervis (Richard Ney), and is having an affair with Dr. Roger Gretorex (Patric Knowles), Ivy becomes obsessed with wealthy Miles Rushworth (Herbert Marshall), and is determined to have him.
However, Miles shows no interest because she's a married woman, which angers Lexton. Bored with her monotonous marriage, Ivy plans on poisoning her husband then pinning the blame on Roger so she may run off with Miles.

All Hours
by: IvyCan't wake up
I can't feel a thing
The night's so rough
So what does it mean?
Time goes by
And comes round again
All my life
I've learned to pretend
Lost in the sun
Lost in the sun
And I could be anywhere
And I could be everywhere
Lost in the sun
Lost in the sun
Light fills my mind and I feel so enlightened, so enlightened
Morning comes, shines like a dream
Tried to run, scape everything
City's sky is always a flame
In my mind I want the same
Lost in the sun
Lost in the sun
And I could be anywhere
And I could be everywhere
Lost in the sun
Lost in the sun
Light fills my mind and I feel so enlightened, so enlightened
