Abstract
Problems of the history of cultivation of taxa and culta of the genus Hedera in Nikitsky botanical garden are analyzed. Data on the genus Hedera is revealed to be incomplete and contradictory or absent at all on the various stage of the Garden history. The most important impetus to ivy collection development was given by N.A. Hartwiss and L.I. Uleiskaya. Author shows unknown pages of the history: he revealed some specimens of ivy cultivars that were grown here up to the end of 1920-s, and several ivy cultivars were discovered as relicts of cultivation in the arboretum of Nikitsky garden and also in the former Hartwiss’ estate in Artek.
