I don't know the specific IVY, but I am having trouble growing it in a pot.

I recently transplanted it from a small pot to a larger plastic pot. The soil retains moisture for a long time and I'm wondering if that's a reason that it's not doing well. It seems to have these faint shades of yellow on the leaves. Some leaves just fall off, and some have a line of brown creeping down the leaf.

Should I feed it? Should it be a terra cotta pot? SHould the soil retain less moisture?

Thanks

Would it be possible to see a picture of it?

How often are you watering it?

If the soil is very water retentive maybe just try watering it less.
