Japanese Knotweed in Surrey – a problem or not?
Yes, it’s a problem, because Surrey is considered to be a Japanese Knotweed hotspot. The invasive plant arrived in the south east of England, Kew Gardens, in 1850, and the first nursery to sell it to the general public was in Kingston. Now, it’s spread across the nation, but will always have its roots in the south east.
The impact of Japanese Knotweed is devastating, with the plant growing as much as 2cm a day and one rhizome spreading up to 7m underground. Up to 250 shoots grow in a single square metre patch of this resilient and destructive plant. Damage to drains, roads, pavements, paths, driveways and walls is the result. To avoid this risk, Japanese Knotweed removal Surrey is crucial.
