Hi Christina!
My English Ivy was really suffering because she only was receiving light from a northeast facing window. Those are the only windows I have in my very small apartment.ðŸ˜ģ I finally broke down and moved all of my plants under grow lights about 6 weeks ago.They went from not growing for 4 months, that's when I got them all, to growing like crazy (most of the 11 in my Oasis).
My Ivy is under Sansi lights, which I leave on from 6am to 6pm. It has an automatic timer, which is awesome. Will change to 8 hours of light at the end of October. I live in the Northeast.
She also gets watered with distilled water only when she's almost completely dry. I also use only We the Wild products, thus far, and use a Neem pray for her leaves and stems every 2 weeks, or when she gets watered.
Good luck with your baby! 😙 ðŸĪžðŸ™ðŸ•ŠïļðŸŠī

Oh gosh...
I forgot to share with you...
You can always take quite a few cuttings from your Ivy and grow them in water.
When the roots are maybe 3 inches or so, you can put them in a pot with soil...pot should be about 4 to 4.5 inches in circumference.
And...you've got a whole new plant ðŸŠī!
