hi yall!! i need help identifying my ivy!! i bought him from lowes a long time ago but the only thing i remember is that the cultivar name is francis! doesn't look quite like an english ivy \& seems fussier \& less of an easy keeper than english ivies are supposed to be- when i first got him he kept losing all of his leaves and almost dying on me 😑 was not fun there for a stretch but he has mostly settled down now! i am also not sure what's up with the dead patches (?) on the edges of some leaves? hope the pictures help!

i recommend checking out ivy dot org, they have pictures and information on hundreds of ivy cultivars, including other ivies besides hedera helix
