Dig a hole 12 inches away from the base of the concrete wall. Make the hole slightly larger than the nursery pot in which your ivy is growing.
Slide the ivy plant out of the nursery pot and place it in the hole. Fill in the hole with soil.
Water the new ivy transplant for the first two to three weeks to keep the soil moist while the plant becomes established.
Assist the first shoots to find the wall if they seem reluctant to take hold. Insert screw eyes into the concrete at a level that the developing vine may reach. Attach the vine loosely to the wall with wire.
Prune off ivy tendrils that grow away from the wall or to an area of the wall you want to keep bare. Prune ivy anytime of year.
