Ivy was a young girl who stayed in the childrens' ward of the clinic on Quarantine. According to a medical record exerpt reprinted in the 2995: The Legion of Super-Heroes Sourcebook, she was born in 2987 and was 7 at the time of the attack by the Persuader on Quarantine (depicted in Legion of Super-Heroes v4 #12 and Legion of Super-Heroes v4 #13).
According to the medical report, her birth name was ordered suppressed by her birth parents.
Ivy apparently could talk to plants, although the medical professionals at the clinic did not believe her. She was befriended by ex-Legionnaire Kent Shakespeare, who believed she had those abilities. Ivy formed quite an attachment to Kent while the paramedic was stationed at the clinic, and she was heartbroken when he decided to rejoin the Legion in December, 2994.
It was never explicitly explained in the comics, but fan speculation and a few clues pointed to Ivy being the descendant of Swamp Thing. She had a white streak in her hair, which was similar to the same streak in the hair of Abigail (Abby) Arcane (Swamp Thing's lover) and her daughter, Tefé.
When Legion of Super-Heroes volume 4 began, co-plotter Keith Giffen asked the members of the creative team to create one or two new characters each. Ivy was one of Al Gordon's creations. In a conversation with Al Gordon at the 1997 San Diego Comic-Con, fan Steve Mohundro asked Gordon about the character. Gordon revealed the following information:
- Many plans for Ivy were never fleshed out. She was indeed planned to be a plant elemental, much like Swamp Thing. However, she wasn't supposed to be a direct descendant. Instead, the idea was that every time a plant elemental dies, another gets the powers by accident (as Alec Holland got the Swamp Thing powers). This time a little girl named Ivy got the powers.
- If the Timber Wolf mini-series (which Gordon wrote) had been successful, Gordon planned to "pull" the characters that he created – Kent Shakespeare, Celeste McCauley, and probably Ivy – to the 20th century as well to join Brin Londo.
