I was hoping that they would have a ground ivy suggestion. I can’t plant a tree in the center of my lawn. I have done dutch clover in my lawn which with the grass has slowed the spread. Hopefully the self heal will help next year.
I do love this for the small empty sections of yard. Plant something native to take over
I’m not aware of any native plants in my region which can compete with English ivy. It will obliterate everything in its path If you don’t aggressively remove it before it completely takes over.
Odd, I have a huge, mature patch of English ivy that doesn’t encroach on my grass beyond a given point. Now, if only I could rid myself of ground ivy and yellow woodsorrel…

I love woodsorel! But it’s native here.
Consider yourself extremely lucky with that English ivy.
Yeah. I’ve been pulling it up in mats and spraying it. Neither works but just slows it. The previous owner left it a mess
