Ivy Basic Care: Easy

Water: Allow the surface to dry out between watering, but ensure the soil doesn’t dry completely.

Light: Thrives in medium to bright direct light; avoid placing it in low-light areas.

Soil/Drainage: A typical houseplant soil with good drainage is suitable. Amending the soil with perlite can enhance drainage.

Temperature/Humidity: Prefers average to cooler household temperatures and humidity levels.

Order & Shipping Info:
-Plants ship in a grower's pot, fully rooted.
-We ship every Monday and Tuesday (excluding holidays) to avoid weekend delays.
-Our photos show what you can expect, but each plant is unique and may look slightly different upon arrival.
-Minor damage during shipping is entirely normal and should be expected, especially in extreme summer or winter temperatures. Don’t worry—damaged foliage can be trimmed away and will not affect the plant's root system or overall health.
