    Why American skunk cabbage is a problem in East Grinstead

    On East Grinstead properties, American skunk cabbage colonises wet woodland, pond margins and boggy ground, forming dense stands that shade out native wetland plants. Around the high street and Standen House, East Grinstead'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 West Sussex.
