To ivy or not to ivy, that's the question?

Hi, should I encourage ivy to grow No! or does it become unmanageable? Yes! I've just bought a house that already has some but it wants to spread across the side of the house. While I think it's attractive I don't want to create a beast that'll be a headache in the future! Any thoughts welcome. I had a first floor flat that had a bit of garden out the front and that had a nice little piece of Ivy in it when I moved in. I suppose part of it was my fault for letting it get out of control, but when I finally decided to get rid of it, as it entwined itself around the gutter and telephone wires, etc., it really was the Devil's Own job to remove it. It's probably OK if you keep it pruned to a manageable size, but for me, never, ever again. -- Chris |
