Keep killing my indoor ivy…

Typically it lasts a month, seems to grow, and then starts dropping leaves from the top until it finally dies 😕
any tips?

It's supposed to be bad luck in the house.

Maybe in this case it's just bad luck for the ivy Smile

I think this is overwatering

< bitter experience>

I’ve killed millions

I have one that's doing really well and the other died over night, I think it's luck.

I’ll just give up then… maybe ivy and I were never meant to be 😂

Could also be red spider mite. Leaves look powdery underneath, especially near the stem and along the main vein

Ivy is not an indoor plant. That's the main problem.

Agree, it doesn’t like indoor conditions, preferring cool, shady places outdoors.
