Ivy transplants very well, you only need to cut off the ivy and transplant
it, at least thats what Ive done in the past. On stubborn cases, I used to
cut the ivy and put it in a jar of water, then wait for the roots to
develop, then plant it. Ivy in my experience never looks good the first year
of transplanting, but on the seoncd year it seems to do much better.


As for getting rid of it, I opted to rototill for 2 seasons to get rid of
unwanted ivy. Unfortuntately now I want the ivy back, but it's too late for
that.
