Tip 1: Lots of humidity
Mist your Hedera Ivy 2-3 times per week to keep up the humidity. Once a month, give your Ivy plant a nice shower in lukewarm water to wash away any dust. This helps to prevent insect infestations (little pests love to hide in the dust) and boosts the humidity.
Tip 2: The right light
Your Hedera Ivy likes bright, indirect light—it’s beautiful, variegated leaves will become more pronounced and stunning with the brighter light levels.
Tip 3: Not too much water
Your Hedera Ivy prefers to be kept on the drier side, so only water when 25-50% of the soil volume is dry. Make sure you water thoroughly. and that there is no standing water left in the saucer.
Tip 4: Give it a hair cut
Feel free to trim up long runners to keep your plant bushy and full. Use sharp, clean scissors and carefully cut just below a leaf node.
