Hello! My Ivy plants leave are really dry and the soil is really wet. She isn’t doing well. The pot has drain holes and is about 1 foot away from a window for sunlight that has shade. So not direct sunlight all the time. Looking for advice TYI:)

I am not an expert one Ivy, but I think it may be multiple things. I would check for root rot, and pests. Root rot may be the problem, so check to see and if not, you may want to reach out to a better plant expert! Maybe do some online searches.

Sounds like root rot to me
