Default How water ivy houseplant

Hi, just purchased a small ivy plant for indoors by the West window.

Does it like to be top watered, bottom watered, does it dislike wet feet,
etc?

TIA

Any way you like ad-lib, it is quite tolerant of drought for short periods
but won't like standing in water for any great length of time. Don't
overfeed if using liquid feed. Slow release fertilisers like Osmocote are
too much of a good thing for plants adapted to poor growing conditions.
