A 1981 article from the NY Times says:

Many of the vines that hold their shiny green leaves all year long are sold labeled simply as ''English ivy,'' but not all of these are very resistant to extreme cold. There are two tough varieties to look for specifically. One of these is called Baltic ivy (Hedera helix baltica) and the other, which is even more hardy, has the unlikely name of ''238th Street'' (Hedera helix 238th Street).
