Hedera helix White Wonder – English Ivy-Small Size

Meet the Hedera Helix, a houseplant that brings a touch of sophistication and energy to your home. Also known as the English Ivy or Common Ivy, it is a plant that perfectly balances charm and resilience. With verdant evergreen angular leaves and long tendrils, it is a stunning hanging plant with adventurous vines, that add texture and depth to your indoor space. The name Hedera Helix, derived from the Ancient Greek word for “twist” or “turn,” perfectly captures the plant’s lively and dynamic nature.

🌿Not shy of the dry! This plant is somewhat more robust and tolerant of neglect. Only water when the soil is 80% dry… Might as well put your feet up then.

🌿Be careful not to overwater your English Ivy, as waterlogged roots are prone to rot!

🌿Cool your jets! Hedra helix likes cooler temperatures.

Keep it in cooler rooms and away from radiators.
