It is fast-growing, drought-tolerant, and generally maintenance-free, as it rarely has insect pest or disease problems.

Always wear protective clothing, such as Chemical Resistant Gloves, when handling SBK Brushwood Killer.English ivy can also be smothered by placing a thick layer of newspaper or cardboard on top of it, followed by mulch. To do this, you will need some cardboard, a bunch of dead leaves and grass, some old bits of newspaper, and other similar stuff.

English ivy ( Hedera helix) is an evergreen vine that has been planted for many decades in South Carolina communities as a shade-loving groundcover. Horticultural Vinegar: Fill a spray bottle with undiluted horticultural vinegar and apply it directly to the ivy leaves.

Pennsylvania sedge, wild ginger, partridge berry, Christmas fern, or Allegheny spurge are just a few great native ground covers that look nice and won't become a burden.

As ivy is not directly harmful to trees and is beneficial to wildlife, control is not usually necessary. Its powerful vines can penetrate trees and cracks in buildings and can lead to rotting if left untreated. Ivy growing on trees is often thought to be a serious problem, endangering the health of even very large trees. However, its presence on the trunk is not damaging and where it grows into the crown this is usually only because the trees are already in decline or are diseased and slowly dying. If it is covering the ground, dig it out with a mattock, spade or fork and dispose of it away from the garden.
