    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Maynooth

    On Maynooth properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. In Maynooth, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Royal Canal and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Rye Water and Carton House, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Leixlip and Celbridge, are where we most often find established stands.
