Does anyone know what could cause wilting on my ivy? I would assume underwatering, but I’m not sure. I water it when the soil is fully dry. It’s really only the top of the vines that are wilting, the new growth at the bottom looks perfectly healthy.

    I’m also assuming under watering. old leaves will start to wilt to conserve water to the newer growth.

      of course! I’d also probably say bottom water or make sure the soils dry to 1/2 inch

    i would guess underwatering too, hedera helix (english ivy) prefer consistently moist soil. they also don’t tend to live long indoors. when i had one, i watered once the top inch of soil is dry and it was thriving for a while until it got rootbound and forgotten— the drought killed mine this winter
