The scores headed The Ivy Leaf do not present identical notation. Some open with two sharps and 4/4, while another opens with three sharps and 2/2. Compare the opening bars, key signature and time signature before selecting a version, since a shared tune title can appear in different settings.
None of the available scores credits a composer for The Ivy Leaf. Titles also vary between The Poison Ivy Leaf, The Ivy Leaf and Ivy Leaf. Similar titles are not proof that every version is the same piece, so check the notation rather than relying on the title alone.
The scores indicate opening key and time signatures, but they do not provide a verified composer, instrumentation, origin or genre for The Ivy Leaf. Treat historical or stylistic labels attached elsewhere cautiously until they can be checked against a reliable source.

No composer is credited on the available scores of The Ivy Leaf, and no verified attribution is available here. The piece should therefore be treated as unattributed in this presentation rather than assigned to a named composer.
The available versions of The Ivy Leaf do not share one opening key signature: some begin with two sharps and another begins with three sharps. That indicates different notated keys or transpositions, so check the opening bars of a specific score rather than assuming a single key.
The listed scores of The Ivy Leaf use different metres: some are in 4/4 and another is in 2/2. A musician choosing a version should check the time signature as well as the key, because the available notation is not uniform.
The titles are close, but title similarity alone does not prove that The Ivy Leaf and The Poison Ivy Leaf are the same tune. Compare the opening melodic phrase, key and metre in the scores before treating them as versions of one piece.
The available scores do not specify instrumentation, so they cannot be assigned to a particular instrument or ensemble from the supplied information. Check a chosen score for clef, range and any instrument indication before using it in performance.
