@SusanTabor - thank you for the clarification. I was not at all being critical and hope you did not take offense - just adding caution from my experience in the PNW (English ivy may well be a non-issue on the east coast). Some plants just give one a 'yikes' reaction -- I find I have to rather hide my cultivation of
Bishop's Weed (Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegatum') as it is a loathsome invasive for many folks, but is not any problem for me. Looking forward to your posts and pictures, and again welcome to ATP. Deb
