    I have an English ivy plant that all of a sudden lost all its little leaves. I was so sad. Did I give it to much sun, water or too little water. Do you think it will come back to life?

    1. Hi Loretta, it could’ve been because of too much water, sadly I don’t think it will come back to life if it already died 🙁
