In the front of house is a fairly steep slope, covered with...you guessed it...Ivy. It's a pain to take care of. It often coveres our steps and the handrail......it constantly needs trimmed at the bottom on the hill so it doesnt cover the sidewalk. I think it looks plain horrible. What's the easiest way to get rid of it, and whats something simple to put in its place?

Where do you live and what are the lighting conditions? IE what direction does the area face, N,S,E,W ? As for removing the Ivy, buy heavy gloves and knee pads. Your gonna need them!

I think you responded to the wrong email. I got the pea problem, NOT the ivy problem.
