English ivy vs. Blackberry bushes?

Here in the Seattle area, we have two invasive plants that seem to grow without bounds over everything, english ivy and blackberry bushes. So I got to wondering, if both of these plant predators are in the same spot of land growing against each other, which plant species would eventually dominate and choke the other one out?

English ivy vs. Blackberry bushes?
I agree -- the Ivy would probably win!! But YOU would be the loser!! Ivy harbors rats and snails!! Blackberries you can eat!!



Good Luck!!

Reply:The ivy would win that one. It would climb and cover the bushes.
