Roundup – Use Near Oak
Q: Can I safely spray Roundup on a privet hedge growing under a mature oak tree?
A: Glyphosate (Roundup, etc) is mostly absorbed by leaves but can be absorbed by a tree trunk or roots if applied heavily. If you are careful to spray just the privet leaves, you could use the chemical under an oak.
