I have a small shade garden on one side of my house along the privacy fence I share with a neighbor. I have multiple hostas, some Solomon's Seal and Actaea (Snake Root) along with a hydrangea and few azaela's. Some english ivy has spread under the fence from my neighbors yard and is quickly filling in around these plants. I really like the look but am concerned that the ivy will crowd out the other plants, especially the hostas. Does any one have any experience with this? Can these plants co-exist with the ivy?
