Went to fred meyers tonight and picked an ivy. It didn't say what type
on the tag but it did say "hardy, needs watering weekly" which seemed

The word "hardy" generally means that plant is not a tropical plant
and can be planted outdoors without any freezing concern. Like
another post stated, take it to the shower a couple times a month to
ward off spider mite and to keep the plant clean.
