BlueBunn,A BIG YES TO THE IRIS,A BIG NO TO THE ENGLISH IVY.I no longer have it sooo glad,I kept it in ck,cutting it back 3-4 times a year,IT IS ON THE DO NOT PLANT LIST IN INDIANA,and I will bet its on the list in kentucky,I know its pretty.I have 4 pots of this stuff, I cant remember the name,but I do know it also is on the do not plant list too,I just found out ,thats why I still have it,not after the first frost it goes to the burn pile,it will take root where ever it touches the ground,I almost planted it on a slope around the screened porch. Ive seen english ivy choke a 20ft tall tree to death.i have planted a couple of invaisives with out knowing oh man iam rreally careful now.It can be a real drag trying to irradicate stuff.PLANT THOSE IRIS.
