    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Omagh

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