  1. 1. Have you noticed excessive Ivy growth in the UK recently?

  2. 2. Should Ivy be controlled more in the UK?

  3. 3. Do you consider Ivy a potential threat to the UK countryside?

Look at this picture and count the trees with ivy. Then count the ones without ivy on the other side of the road, same side of road and across the field to the right.

 

You asked for arborists opinion, there are a lot of trees with ivy, but there are a whole lot more without.

Why the need to be so personal and insulting! What harm have I ever done to you?

 

OK …so a question for all you “professionals “…

Can a native plant become invasive?

 

Answer that properly and maybe we can have an educated discussion. 


Ouch…this may mean I have to think a bit and use my addled brain.
