It just got away from us. The ivy growing on the garden shed, that is. And we can't remove it; Ken has tried. However, the landscape contractor said "no problem." But, he warned, it will try like heck to come back, so we'll have to cut away any shoots we that see at ground level to keep the takeover from happening again. Doses of weed killer could help, but we may have to move those irises.
Ken cut some of the ivy (you can see where it's brown), but it's tough going, and we can't pry it off the walls.
It's chilly this morning! It was 16.4ºC when I took Tasha out. That's about 61ºF. The high is expected to top out at 31ºC (about 88ºF). Sleeping is much easier, especially for Tasha.
The ivy league isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
ReplyDeleteI have read where ivy is very hard to get rid of.
ReplyDeleteSo, my head immediately goes to, "How would he have said that in French?" Especially the "it will try like heck" to come back. What kind of phrasing did he use, Walt?
