Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Japanese Knotweed (stems) This shows the woody bamboo like nature of the knotweed stems. The dense growth and root system eradicates competing native species as well as causing damage to nearby structures. A tiny fragment (0.7g) is all that is needed to spread the weed further. It can be very expensive to remove. One building site had a 30m X 30m patch which cost more than £50,000 to deal with. It is currently spreading faster than it can be killed. This is on a bridle path at Tolpuddle
