Beautiful, resilient plant!
This plant is beautiful and I would call it resilient as well. It was very well wrapped so that the soil would not fall out of it no matter what position my kids turned the box at home. Also, I forgot to open the box for two days and the plant still looked beautiful once I unwrapped it. The pictures above were taken probably three days after it arrived and the day after I took it out of the box. They look healthy and full. I put them on my windowsill for direct light and will continue reading on how to best care for these ivys so that they flourish, since I originally bought the plant after reading that they are great at purifying air quality in your home. Will definitely buy it again. I will update this review if needed.

Not a good indoor plant
It’s very hard to keep any type of ivy alive inside. This of course was no different if you’re going to keep this inside I would recommend lots of sunlight in a south facing window or a grow light. It looked very good and healthy when it first came in.

Perfect
This came packed perfect! I was afraid with the hot weather it may not make it. The pot was wrapped in plastic and the soil was still moist. It looked great.

Tiniest plant I've ever seen
I've never seen Ivy sold this tiny. Some of the pictures of other reviewers make that plant not look SO tiny. But mine had leaves that were no larger than half an inch. I'm even worried about how well it will survive being repotted. I would definitely recommend shopping for this plant in person if you can. I know that's not always possible these days, hence why I made this purchase, but if you can you definitely should. EDIT: None of the tiny ivy-lings survived in spite of my best efforts. This is the only plant I've ever actually had fully die on me. Wouldn't recommend.

Great healthy plant
The plant arrived safe, it was very well packaged. Beautiful healthy plant with lots of stems. It has already grown new leavs on every stem! I have not repotted yet, it hasn't had long enough to acclimate yet.

Sick plant
When this ivy can be it was sick with what I think is a bacterial infection. I've ordered the spray that is supposed to help. In the mean time the plant is dying off quickly. I take sick leaves off every day. The picture is what is left of the plant before I remove the sick leaves today. I don't think it will make it. Very pissed. Waste of money for the plant and the spray just to end up with no plant.

green thumb required maybe?
this is the third plant I bought, the first two are fantastic, full, green and thriving. This one looked good when it came out of the box but is still slowly dying. I do not have a green thumb and account it to that. Maybe that kind of plant is just not for me, I must say that it did look good when I got it
