Happy New Year All! Can't wait for spring to roll around! I took some cuttings from some ivy out in my garden-not sure what type it is, but there's lots of it out there, and it just keeps growing. So I stuck the cuttings in some water, and they grew some nice roots and I potted them a couple of days ago. It's started to put on some new growth already (I had them in the water for quite some time). I've got it in a south window now. Can anyone give me some tips on how to take proper care of it? Also, what should I expect from it? Will it grow straight up or will it droop or do I have to train it? I really started this on a whim, not really expecting it to work, so I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!
