In response to Divide thyme, ivy posted by Cottage_Garden:

Thanks Barb,

We are having a heat wave so from what you say, best to wait a bit. I think I'll just trim a little for now and do my dividing next spring.

The thyme was a great buy as it was little plants that I got at a nursery for under 2 dollars and they have different coloured blooms so it is making a nice pattern and has spread to cover a large area.

The ivy has also spread from a small plant that I bought a couple of years ago and I've trained it around a metal teepee sort of thing (not sure it's gardening name - metal tripod with an ornate metal bit at the top that has rusted nicely). It has grown too much though and is into the stairs so I'll need to cut it back for sure.
