The best I've ever grown those ivies was in a terrarium.
They'll do ok hanging outside in a shady spot in the summer (thanks to our cool, damp nights) but as soon as winter comes and they have to be inside, I lose them (too dry air from artificial heat). Some of that is my own fault for not misting enough though (and daily misting is essential, for the plant and to keep their number one pest, the spider mite, under control).

Good luck with them!
