Hi,
If you can still get tumble weed gel go for it.
paint the leaves with the enclosed brush and sit back and wait. repaint any
new growth and in time all traces of bindweed will be eradicated.
tumble weed gel is systemic and kills the roots as well as plants, but does
take a little time. under no circumstances should you let it flower or , mor
important set seed

I can't believe it! I ordered via the internet and subsequently planted 10
Calystegia Pink Sensation. They've grown lovely and have finally flowered
today ... only, they're not calystegia, they're convovulus. Now I'm stuck
with tons and tons of bindweed.

I'm going to complain to the company in question and no doubt I'll get a
refund, but in the meantime I have a big problem to deal with. Great!
