Kathy is right, Roundup is sold in different concentrations. I think it is
sold under different names too.
On the subject of favorite vines has anyone mentioned Wisteria, Lady
Banks Rose, Clematis, Jasmine and Honeysuckle. Those are some favorites
of mine. There are also two vine-like plants that may not be too hardy -
Tecomaria capensis the Cape Honeysuckle-orange blooms and Tecoma stans
-yellow blooms. Both are hummingbird attractors. I'm not sure about
their hardiness but here in CA they're pretty sturdy. We've had quite a bit
of frost and even surface freezing several days in a row before Christmas.
The last two plants were in containers and survived though.
