The answer, of course, is yes. Ivy grows fast, spreads fast, and has strong attachment to the wall. If it is not trimmed, it will attach to the surface of the wall, which is difficult to clean. Think about most of the white walls in your home. It's not good to get dirty.
When pruning, do not be heartbroken, of course, not too cruel. Restore the plant to its original shape, cut it short properly, and use scissors until you think it is beautiful. Ivy has a strong ability of recovery, so you don't have to worry that cutting off the branches and leaves will endanger its life.
When pruning, first cut off the dead or damaged branches (please see the damaged branches at any time), and then cut off the branches that affect the beauty. In a word, make sure that the ivy is beautiful, don't cut the branches and leaves very well, and make sure that they are well arranged.
There is another way to effectively control the plant growth, that is, picking heart. In spring, absolutely Ivy will pick heart, remove part of the new shoots, and inhibit their growth. Later pruning is more convenient.
