Japanese Knotweed in the UK
Famous for it’s fast, quick spreading and aggressive nature, Japanese Knotweed first arrived in the UK in the mid 1800’s where it was brought to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew, London where it became popular as a good looking and sturdy ornamental plant.
It took a while before it’s invasive nature and potential to outgrow and spread out from its boundaries was fully understood and it was commonly planted alongside riverbanks and railway lines as well in gardens.
The main issue with Japanese Knotweed is that it’s powerful rhizome network ( root structure ) spreads quickly and aggressively away from the host plant and can penetrate surrounding areas and neighbouring properties creating possible legal issues as these roots can penetrate and push up through any weaknesses it comes across in walls, drives, patios, even foundations.
Now classified as an invasive pest subject to legal measures including the Wildlife and Countryside Act of 1981 with penalties including large fines and even imprisonment for planting it or causing it to grow in the wild, although it is not illegal to have on your property if properly maintained.
Japanese Knotweed can also smother and outcompete local species for light and nutrients and unbalance native eco-systems.
