Water specimens grown as houseplants regularly during the growing season, providing a balanced liquid fertiliser each month. Keep moist during the winter months. Plants may be pruned at any time of the year to keep within bounds.
This ivy is fully hardy and can also be planted outside. If growing ivy against a wall or fence, plant 30cm (12in) away and angle towards support. Plant level with the soil surface and incorporate some well-rotted compost into the backfill, sprinkle some mycorrhizal fungi over the rootball and firm the soil around the plant. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch to retain moisture.
Once established, ivy can provide a protective habitat for birds and other animals, so any pruning should be tackled ahead of the nesting season in late winter or early spring. Before pruning, observe for a few days, and if birds are returning to one spot, consider leaving it alone as nest building may already be underway.
