i have hedera helix. i have her pot hanging on my kitchen wall. i have to keep my plants hanging high because my cat likes to eat plants. anyway, she look like she is wilting. i took a piece of her for another pot to put in my living room. this one also look wilted and she is hanging on the wall also above my fishtank. i only water her when she is dry so i dont think im over watering. before her last watering i put a few pellets of 10 10 10 plant food. i spay her with spay bottle in the morning. is there anything else i can do? you can email me directly with any help soliisoul@yahoo.com thanks

Check for spider mites. They love this kind of ivy. They are very small and hard to see, but will look like dusty, webby stuff around growth points and where leaves meet stems. Also, this is the ivy of universities 'ivied halls', is winter hardy, and does not require tender treatment.
May God bless the WHOLE world!

nope. dont see the spidery stuff anywhere. is there a mix of soil maybe that i should be using instead of using the regular potting soil that comes in the bag?

Hmm. Maybe under-watering? Give it a drink and see if it perks up after a few hours. Soil mix shouldn't matter as long as it drains. Do your hanging baskets drain excess water? If not, you may have some root-rot going on at the bottom.
