Cissus alata 'Ellen Danica'

Cissus alata 'Ellen Danica' is a compact ornamental grape ivy with deeply cut, glossy green leaflets and a bushy vining habit. It climbs with forked tendrils and also trails from a hanging pot, where the divided leaves form a layered, textured cascade.

Cissus rhombifolia is a synonym of Cissus alata, so Cissus rhombifolia 'Ellen Danica' may appear as an alternative name for the same grape ivy cultivar.

Glossy lobed grape ivy traits

  • Evergreen tendril climber with a compact, bushy habit
  • Deeply lobed, glossy green leaflets with toothed edges
  • Trails from pots and shelves, or uses forked tendrils on a slim trellis
  • Forked tendrils appear opposite the leaves
  • Also known as Cissus rhombifolia 'Ellen Danica'

Vining habit and tropical range

Cissus alata is native from Mexico through Central and South America to Bolivia and Trinidad, where it grows as a tropical liana. Indoors, 'Ellen Danica' keeps the climbing character of the species but develops denser growth and more finely divided leaflets.

The leaves are compound, usually with three leaflets. In 'Ellen Danica', the leaflet edges are strongly cut, giving the plant a crisp, lobed outline. Small greenish flowers and dark berries are part of the species’ natural cycle, but they are uncommon indoors.

The stems can be pinched several times through the growing season to keep the plant leafy near the pot. Older vines may become woody at the base, while fresh shoots carry the glossiest, most finely divided foliage.

Keeping Ellen Danica leafy

  • Light: Keep the vine in bright, indirect light. Softer light is tolerated, but growth becomes more open when the plant receives limited brightness for long periods.
  • Watering: Let the upper substrate dry before watering again. Keep moisture steadier from spring to autumn and reduce watering in winter.
  • Substrate: Provide a well-drained, airy mix with some moisture retention. A peat-free houseplant mix with perlite, bark, or pumice gives the roots good airflow.
  • Temperature: Keep above 10 °C; regular indoor warmth keeps new shoots firmer.
  • Humidity: Standard indoor humidity is enough for steady growth. Avoid direct hot airflow, which can dry the leaf edges and tender shoot tips.
  • Feeding: Use a diluted fertiliser during active growth if the plant is producing new shoots. Deep green leaves usually indicate sufficient nutrition.
  • Pruning: Trim long shoots to keep the plant full. Cuttings root readily from healthy stem sections.
  • Training: Let it trail from a raised pot, or guide the tendrils onto a trellis for more upright growth.
  • Airflow: Keep dense growth lightly thinned so the inner stems dry normally after watering and pest checks are easier.

Leaflet, tendril and root checks

  • Leaf drop: Check for a watering swing. This species can shed leaves when kept too wet or allowed to dry too hard.
  • Pale, stretched growth: Usually points to low light. Move gradually into a brighter position.
  • Leaf spots or mildew: Improve airflow, keep foliage dry overnight, and check that the substrate drains quickly.
  • Mealybugs, scale, or spider mites: Inspect stems, leaf joints, and undersides, especially on dense trailing growth.

Pet-friendly listing and access

ASPCA records grape ivy under Cissus rhombifolia as non-toxic to cats and dogs. Chewed leaves may still irritate sensitive stomachs, so trim damaged growth and keep grazing pets away.

Cissus alata 'Ellen Danica' carries glossy lobed leaflets, fine tendrils and a full grape ivy habit.

Body pillow covers
Color: White, Size: Body(20"X 54")
I ordered the body pillow covers. They fit my pillow perfectly and the fabric is smooth and silky, but I did not find them cooling.

Cooling King-Size Pillows (used on a Queen pillows to tuck the extra in)
Color: Navy Blue, Size: 2 Pack King(20"X 36"), Color: Navy Blue, Size: 2 Pack King(20"X 36")
🛏️ Product Review: Cooling King-Size Pillows (used on a Queen bed) ⭐ The Good • These are king-size pillows, which I actually love on a queen bed because I can tuck the ends into the fabric. • The fabric feels slick and cool, but you don’t slip off of it. • They feel cold to the touch right out of the package (which is wild). • I sleep extremely hot and even run fevers at night due to a medical condition (literally 101–102° sometimes), and these pillows still stay cool where I lay my head. • I’ve honestly never slept this well in my life. • For the price, you cannot beat them, and they go on sale often. • These beat any high-end version I’ve tried. • If you sleep normal-temp and not lava-hot like me, you’re going to be VERY comfortable with these. ⚠️ The Bad • The fabric does show crease lines. • If wrinkles bother you, this might annoy you (doesn’t bother me personally). 🔧 What I’d Change / Tips for Care • Don’t use fabric softener — it clogs the cooling fabric and ruins how it works. • Wash with unscented detergent + a little vinegar. • Dry on low heat only (do NOT dry on high if you want the fabric to keep working long-term). ✅ Final Thoughts I will literally never not own these again. If you sleep hot, night-sweat, or just want a pillow that actually stays cool — these are it. 10/10 recommend.

Love it but it stains
Color: Haze Blue, Size: 2 Pack Standard(20"X 26")
I love these but had to knock some stars down for a single reason. They are soft, the material is somehow both substantial and airy at the same time, and a smooth, silky (not satin), cozy texture. The color was exactly as pictured. The envelope style works great to keep my pillows covered. The fabric lays perfectly. I love sleeping on this pillow case. Took two stars off because every single atom of oil on my face stained it immediately and won't come out in the wash. Its not subtle. You can see anywhere my face has been, forever. I don't have some incredibly oily face or hair, I've never had this happen to another pillow case in my life.

Silky and Soothing
Color: Cream, Size: 2 Pack Queen(20"X 30")
I thought I was getting 1 of the queen sized but I got 2. I got these for my Pomeranian's fuzzy pillow. He's always hot and these are very cooling and very good quality. He loves them and are very comfortable for him. They totally transformed his shaggy old pillow. I used the larger body pillow covers to replace the covers I had. They matched my bedspread perfectly. I use 2 body pillows along the exterior wall in my bedroom where there is cold coming through the floor in the winter. I'm sure I will enjoy them in the summer when it's hot too!
