    Do you know what kind of an ivy it is? I'm in Burlington Ont, and have a large crop of English Ivy. It doesn't tend to look nice till June. Though the previous winter we did lose a large patch due to the extreme cold winter we had.

    No I'm not sure what kind it is. I got it about 2months ago it looked really nice and was doing well. I wouldn't think with it getting nicer weather it would be doing so badly now. I would post a picture but not to sure how to add it now, so you could see it.

    Water it only when the soil gets dryish. Make sure it is not soggy all the time, as that will cause root decay.
