Hello plant peeps! I just got this variegated wax ivy for my b day. I’ve never had one before and would love any tips! The top is quite tangled and I was wondering if I should try and untangle it. It has an all right pot situation right now but in the future I will need to repot and deal with the tangle. Thanks so much!!!

I love this plant. Treat it like a succulent. If you give it lots of light the white turns pink! It doesn’t look bad tangly like it is. Just looks full. They are kinda crisp and the leaves break off easily like a peperomia. What a fun birthday plant! Happy Belated bday!! 🎉
