It's weird you mention that Tiffany, the directions on the ivy roundup told me to pick all the tops off and then soak the ground with the roundup? I have a bottle of the undiluted stuff, I think I'll dig up whatever I can then hit it one more time with the undiluted bottle.

Are you sure the product is RoundUp? You spray RoundUp (glyphosate) on the leaves of the plant and then leave the plant alone for at least seven days for the herbicide to move into the roots and start to kill the plant. Stubborn plants can take 3 weeks or so to die. If you take the tops off too early you stop the herbicide from getting to the roots. It's not intended for soaking the ground, it doesn't work that way.
