Problem is that it is covered with a ground cover of a fairly aggressive
English Ivy (No, I didn't plant it, it was a legacy from a former insane
owner). If I stick to large hostas (my Blue Angel, Sum and Substance,
Frances Williams and a few others need dividing next year) will they be
able to compete successfully? I have heard that ivy is not compatible with
hostas..

Hi All! Hostas will not compete with English ivy, in my opinion and
experience.
You could, of course, keep it at bay;but, the ivy is such an aggressive grower
it will be a constant struggle.
