# How do i save this Ivy? She was beautiful for months, hanging out of…

How do i save this Ivy? She was beautiful for months, hanging out of my ceiling close to my balcony door that face northeast. Now she looks like that, dry and sad, i would only water when the top was dry, like around every 2 weeks, humidifier in the same room, she has some spider webs? Could be this the issue?

I'm not an expert but I've read if they are small dense webbing, it is probably spidermites. But again, I'm not an expert. Hopefully someone else will have an answer. I'm so sorry for your Ivy.

That webbing looks like spider mites. You'd need to treat for it. Ivy's can unfortunately kick off pretty quickly. I'd trim back anything that looks dead, un earth it to check the roots, and spray it down with a shower, then repot and treat
