Yep, learned to drive on my grandfather's. He picked up a semi-restored one in the late '60s and used it to cut his pasture and do some gardening.
Wish I had it today...at the time, I wondered why he bought an "old" tractor and not a modern one.

If it's English Ivy, it will stay green in the tree for weeks after the stems are cut at the ground. But it will die. I usually paint the cut ends of the stems with full strength Brush-B-Gone to kill the roots. I've never had much luck using Roundup on it. Not strong enough.
