    English ivy can become aggressive over time, so if you do this you will need to keep the ivy trimmed back or it will take over. Hops grow from a perennial rhizome but the aboveground parts of the plant die back and re-grow each spring. Your plan should be possible but you may have to clear out some of the English ivy each year to make room for the hops.

    English Ivy is hardy down to zone 4. If you have this plants in pots, you can bring them to a sheltered location when they have gone dormant.
    Your garage is a good place.
    Add some mulch to the top of the pots to help with moisture retention. Check the soil about once a month to make sure the soil has not completely dried out.
    Add a small amount of water if needed.
    If you choose to bring them indoors to have as a potted plant, make sure you watch for signs of insects during the dry winter months.

    It sounds as if your plant was overwatered and that it is suffering from Root Rot.
    The soil should dry between waterings.

    This is never the answer that gardeners want, hand pulling the weeds is the only safe and effective method.
    Once the grass is under control you can heavily mulch the area to keep the weeds and grass from returning.
