Why running bamboo is a problem in Wisbech
On Wisbech properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Wisbech's location on the River Nene amid the drained Fens has left extensive dyke networks and old wharf sites where knotweed spreads easily, aided by the town's long history of river-based trade and industry.
