Ivy is an invader and efforts are made to get rid of it as it can kill plants around But in our garden I made best use of it and it clings to areas where it enhances the beauty of our garden But we also need to keep it in trim. As you can see in the photo the photo looks great with a touch of ivy and yes we need to be alert and not let it spread over and cover the pot fully.

@allknowing Not only the clinging ivy , the red big pot also looks so beautiful. I think every 10 days it should be trimmed?

I have a huge issue with ivy. It has taken over one tree that flowers sweetly in the spring. It has grown so much that I have no idea what to do except take the flowering tree out and I won't do that.

You should never wait but keep pulling out as and when it spreads. We are doing that all the time. Why don't you start the process now?
