Knotweed in Donegal
In Donegal, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Eske and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Donegal Castle and Donegal Bay, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Laghey and Mountcharles, are where we most often find established stands.
Donegal sits within our Donegal, Cavan & Monaghan coverage, where the main local pressure is lakeland drainage, border rivers and farmland verges.
