My hedra ivy was in a hanging basket outside. For a week it received 100 degree heat while I was out of town. It looks cooked! What should I do? Should I prune all the woody stems? Can Ivy grow on old wood?

RE: ivy is cooked

If you gave it a good soaking and left it in a cool, shaded place you're possibly seeing some regrowth now autumn is approaching. A week at 100F does sound fatal, though, even for ivy.
