Hi there,

I am looking for some advices. I repotted a common Ivy plant because soil was not enough to cover the full roots, and I decide to give her a new brand soil.

After repotting, how should I wait before watering? Shall I give moist to soil in the first weeks.

unless your existing soil and/or rootball when repotting was very wet and you reused most of your soil, you should water right after repotting.

No the soil is completely new, and before repotting the soil was dryer

I have one that looks like it that’s called an asterisk ivy.
