light
Place in bright, indirect to medium light.
soil
Plant in all-purpose potting soil or step-up your game with a terrestrial mix; 2-3 parts all-purpose potting soil, 1 part vermiculite, 1/2 part worm castings.
water
Water when the top 2-3 inches of soil are dry. Cut back on watering in the winter to avoid root rot. Do not allow to completely dry out.
fertilizer
Ivy are not heavy feeders and can be fertilized sparingly with an all-purpose fertilizer. Be sure to fertilize if your plant becomes chlorotic (uncharacteristically yellow or light green over time).
tips and troubleshooting
For an interesting twist, train Ivies to grow around a wire form or obelisk.
