    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Killarney

    On Killarney properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. In Killarney, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Flesk and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Lough Leane and Killarney National Park, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Fossa and Muckross, are where we most often find established stands.
