Trivia[]

- While most animated shows tend to develop romantic relationships over the course of the series' run, Ivy and Sprig's relationship was made official by the end of the first season.
- Ivy's full name, Ivy Hibiscus Matcha Sundew, are all names of plant or tea related things. Ivy, or Hedera, is a type of climbing vine that itself carries various subset plants. Hibiscus is a type of flower found in tropical climate areas that can be used to make Hibiscus tea. Matcha is finely ground powder made from green tea leaves that are most commonly made in East Asian countries. The Sundew, or Drosera, is a small carnivorous plant that is called so because of its liquor like dew that hangs from its leaves. Each name perfectly summarizes her character as well as various themes of the show.
