Since their introduction in the 19th century, Japanese knotweed and other invasive plants have become a pervasive presence in London, taking over the city’s gardens, parks, verges, and waterways. Out of all these non-native invasive plants, Japanese knotweed poses the most significant challenge, closely trailed by Bamboo, which has gained popularity for its screening attributes but can proliferate rapidly if not controlled. Additional invasive species like Horsetail, Giant hogweed, Himalayan balsam, and Cotoneaster also pose considerable issues.
The rampant growth of knotweed is evident throughout the capital, with notable concentrations in areas such as Clapham, Wandsworth, Croydon, Ealing, Hackney, and Camden.
Japanese knotweed, in particular, has the potential to inflict damage on properties, leading to costly repairs and spreading to adjacent properties, resulting in complex legal complications. It can even depreciate home values and impede the selling process. We have successfully assisted numerous homeowners in the region, in overcoming issues caused by Japanese knotweed on their properties.
Bamboo, too, exhibits extensive spreading, with its rhizomes reaching lengths of 30 feet or more, causing new shoots to emerge through lawns and patios. When this encroachment affects neighbouring properties, it can escalade to disputes among neighbours, potentially culminating in legal proceedings.
