Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in High Wycombe
On High Wycombe properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. The River Wye and former furniture-making mill sites along the valley floor give High Wycombe long-standing knotweed populations, further spread by the Chiltern railway line cuttings that dissect the town.
