    Before I posted Armandii I checked it out on the web and the makers of Round-up say it's systemic. :)

    No we're not bickering Mum. :) Just a friendly dispute. We need to get this sorted out anyway, to make sure we're giving the right advice to members.

      I know Sheal; just adding some light hearted banter of my own :redface: I'd quite like to know the definitive answer too.

        Round up is definately 'systemic' Armandii. 'Systemic' means it gets absorped by the plant's leaves and makes it's way through-out the plant, down into the roots in this case so it will hopefully kill off the Russian Vine with a few applications.

        BTW, "Round up" is a trade name, the active ingredient in Round-up is glyphosate, you can find much cheaper 'own brand' sprays in B&Q, Wilkos etc that contain glyphosate in exactly the same dilution rate.
