    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Kidlington

    On Kidlington properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. Knotweed around Kidlington is commonly found along the River Cherwell and the Oxford Canal towpath, as well as on disturbed land near Oxford Airport where past construction works disturbed the soil and spread rhizome fragments.
