Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in Burgess Hill
On Burgess Hill properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. Burgess Hill's growth along the former brickworks and the streams draining towards the River Adur has left disturbed clay ground where knotweed has become well established, especially near the old railway goods yard.
