watering
Swedish ivy should be watered deeply, once or twice every week, depending on the season and environment. In the warmer months, when the weather is hot and dry, the plant may need to be watered more frequently. The soil should be allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. Over watering can lead to root rot, so be careful not to give it too much. When you do water, make sure that the soil is thoroughly moistened.
sunlight
Swedish ivy (Plectranthus 'Mona Lavender') requires medium to bright indirect sunlight for optimal growth. This means that the plant should receive 4-5 hours of indirect sunlight per day. If the plant gets too much direct sunlight, it can get sunburnt, so it's important to find a spot near a window that will allow the plant to get light without it being in direct, harsh sunlight.
pruning
Swedish ivy is an easy-to-care-for plant that does not require frequent pruning. It can be pruned once a year in late spring or early summer to keep the plant from becoming overgrown. When pruning Swedish ivy, remove only the overgrown stems and dead leaves, leaving the healthy stems intact. When pruning, always use sharp, sterile pruning tools to prevent spreading any diseases to the plant.
