When I think the less garden-minded people here have actively promoted
the idea of planting *several* of these monsters, I'm quite relieved
to see a post that illustrates the trouble that's unleashed by putting
one of these in the wrong place!

Yebbutt the OP says 'invaded': it may very well not be his/her plant.
If it's a neighbours they might not appreciate his/her glyphosating it!


Anyone who plants a RV and allows it to invade someone else deserves to
be glyphosated - as well as the plant!

but you've still got to live next door to them. Better to keep the
peace, if possible.


in practice, the damn thing is so vigorous that glyphosating the ivading bit
will keep that bit at bay but the reas will continue to grow without
noticing.

Same with Ivy, i glyphosate the stuff coming trhought beh fence from next
door twice a year - is slows it down wnough to prevent it destroying the
fence but the main plant remains happy!!
