[quote=Anonymous]My yard backs to a weeded alley full of poison ivy (public land no one takes care of). They grow so fast and have invaded the adjacent area in my yard (6' off the fence, sloped down towards the end). I'd like to have this area protected by some kind of ground cover to ward off these bastards. The landscaping company recommended pachysandra, vinca, and english ivy. They all look pretty but a quick search returned rather conflicting and confusing information. Some love them and some say they are no less than a PITA than poison ivy... I'm a total newb to gardening and completely lost here - should I go for one of them, or should I consider something else? I saw people recommend phlox but also say they don't grow fast enough. What's your opinion/experience? [/quote]
