I've moved the ivies to my coffee table about a couple of feet from the 150W
bulb they sat under on my desk. Also I un-potted the two plants that
continued to show yellowing leaves and placed them back in water in hopes
that if it were the soil they'd rejuvenate their color and health.

Yet, another plant is showing one yellow leaf and I'm getting concerned that
they may all succumb to whatever is meta-morphing them. I don't expect a
miracle from anyone and all that have helped me I thank from my heart. I'd
just like for you to take a look at these pictures and if you can make out,
just tell me if they appear sickly. Thank you for you time and help.

Ah. The Bachelor Philodendron. What fun to see how far it'll trail
around a room, yards from its roots. :-) Snip off 8" or so sections;
root them (they root very easily), plant in a decent sized pot, and
don't overwater. They're good low-light houseplants, and virtually
impossible to kill, but prefer soil a bit on the dry side. I've never
had much luck pinching back to produce 'bushy' growth, but that's
what's recommended. With one healthy exception, the pots in your
pictures looked entirely inadequate for the size of the plants, as
well as being enclosed in 'outside pots' ideal for standing water and
root-rot.

It's nice that you care enough to worry about them. You might like to
try a really big pot with one of those kind of furry stakes in it to
let the plant twine up and down.
