Controlling Invasive English Ivy Without Harming Trees

Roundup on Ivy

• Spray leaves → translocates to roots → kills ivy.
• Do NOT spray tree foliage. Roundup on green leaves harms trees.

If Keeping Ivy

Cut vines at desired boundary, pull rest. Labor-intensive but selective.

Key Takeaway

Foliar Roundup kills ivy systemically. Protect tree leaves from overspray. Physical removal needed for partial control.
