Ivy Control in Your Garden

Ivy is a spreading and climbing vine and is a very hardy plant growing in a wide variety of habitats and soils. It readily roots along the stem, growing from discarded cuttings. The berries are attractive to birds, its main dispersal method. It is an aggressive invader, capable of toppling large trees.

Ivy can be physically removed ensuring that all parts of the stem are removed and properly disposed. New plants will readily grow from stem fragments so proper disposal is essential.
