Common Ivy

Strong indoor plant 30 cms in ceramic pot

Light

In both winter and summer, ivy requires bright light, but avoid direct sunlight in summer. In winter, plants can accept a bit of direct sunlight, such as when placed in south-facing windows.

Soil

Fertile, moist, but well-drained soil is ideal for English ivy.

In hotter, drier climates, the ground should be heavily mulched to keep it cool and moist.

Indoors, English ivy likes loose, well-drained potting mix.

Water

Potted ivy prefers moist, humid conditions, but not soaking. Don’t let the soil dry out and keep it evenly moist..

Temperature and Humidity

Outdoors, English ivy does best in moderate conditions, protected from both harsh winter winds and excessive heat of summer.

Very humid conditions can encourage root rot and bacterial leaf spot. Ivies grown indoors prefer cooler nights, often below 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Many species can overwinter outside in pots and will grow back from their stems.

During hot summer days, mist frequently.
