What's a good fertilizer for ivy?

I'm planting a bunch of ivy in my back yard for ground cover but the soil is very poor. What's a good fertilizer to enrich the soil and allow the ivy to grow well and flourish?

What's a good fertilizer for ivy?
ANY fertilizer containing Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphorus (N-P-K) will benefit any green plant. Miracle Grow is a liquid fertilizer markets by Scott's company.. it's water soluble so it's easy to apply, but at the same time, plants use it up quickly.



A granular fertilizer tends to last a little longer. A simple 12-12-12 all-purpose fertilizer is appropriate for ivy. You can buy it at most hardware stores and it's pretty cheap. Apply it per label instructions and don't over-fertilize.



Good Luck!
