    They can be hard. Their watering and humidity wants are pretty steep. I think that's why they list them like that. I personally love an ivy or ivy type plant. A self watering pot wouldn't be remiss

    Oh I should be good then. I have humidifiers in both dining and living room for my others, I do like a challenge 😁

    That my friend is English ivy. Whatever you do, do NOT plant it outside. It’s non native in the states and is super invasive

    No worries there. I'm in Vermont. Though I'd love to have an outside garden, I rent... I dont have any plants outside, except my potted porch tomato.

    I use two English ivy in an outdoor planter that gets a little morning sun and then I put them in a plastic pot indoors for winter. They’re looking great outside, and it seems to tolerate the indoors for the winter. I have another one that stays in the house year round (photo) that’s in a dark corner about 1.5 feet from an east facing bay window. I think you can make it work if you watch moisture levels!

    I got one of these a few years ago. At that point I had no idea how to care for plants so I just put it outside next to a sprinkler. Somehow it’s doing great and is climbing up my backyard fence. Ivy is supper hard to keep indoor so I recommend outdoor but if you do want it indoor make sure to water a good amount, give it light, and maybe give it something to climb.

    Melody is right about giving it something to climb, because it'll find something on its own if you don't 😂
