    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Staines-upon-Thames

    On Staines-upon-Thames properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. Around the riverside and the town centre, Staines-upon-Thames's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Surrey.
