Creepered

/ˈkriːpərd/ adjective

Etymology

Adjective formed from 'creeper' (a plant that climbs) with the suffix '-ed', meaning 'having creepers' or 'covered with creepers.' Related to the verb 'creep' describing plant growth.

Kelly Says

Those beautiful ivy-covered buildings you see in old colleges were often grown that way intentionally—people realized that the plants actually insulate the walls and protect the stone from weather!
