Why knotweed spreads in Suffolk
The Gipping and Waveney valleys and Suffolk's light sandy soils let rhizome travel unusually far from the parent crown, and port-related brownfield land around Ipswich and Felixstowe carries repeated introductions from imported fill.
Main local pressure: Light sandy soils, river valleys and port brownfield fill.
