How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water ivy plants with a generous soak then allow the top inch (2.54cm) of the soil to dry out slightly before watering again. typically this means watering your ivy once a week in the spring and summer and once every 2 weeks in the winter. waiting for the top inch of the soil to dry before watering your ivy applies whether your ivy is indoors or outdoors.
Pruning
Remove dead leaves.
Fertilizer
Liquid fertilizers are applied more frequently, bi-weekly or monthly, for example. Granular products are used less frequently, perhaps once every month or two. Slow-release houseplant fertilizers break down slowly and release their nutrients in small amounts, over a longer period of time. A single application of most of these products lasts for three to four months.
