6" Glacier Ivy
1. Light: Ivy plants prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate some shade, making them suitable for indoor environments. Avoid direct sunlight, especially in hot climates, as it can scorch the leaves.
2. Temperature: Ivy plants grow well in average room temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C). They can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but should be protected from drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations.
3. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season (spring through summer). Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot. In winter, reduce watering slightly but don't let the soil dry out completely.
4. Humidity: Ivy plants appreciate moderate to high humidity levels. Increase humidity by misting the leaves regularly, placing a humidity tray nearby, or using a room humidifier.
5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix with organic matter. A general-purpose potting mix formulated for houseplants works well. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
6. Fertilizing: Feed Ivy plants every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength. Reduce feeding in fall and winter when growth slows down.
7. Pruning: Regularly prune your Ivy plant to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Trim back leggy vines and pinch off growing tips to promote branching.
8. Support: Provide a trellis, moss pole, or support structure if you want the Ivy to climb. Alternatively, let it trail from a hanging basket or over a shelf.
9. Pests: Watch for common pests such as spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
10. Propagation: Ivy plants can be propagated easily from stem cuttings. Take 4-6 inch cuttings from healthy stems, remove the lower leaves, and place them in water or directly into moist potting soil.
