Why running bamboo is a problem in Tuam
On Tuam properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. In Tuam, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Clare and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around St Mary's Cathedral and Corrib catchment, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Milltown and Belclare, are where we most often find established stands.
