Why running bamboo is a problem in Hemel Hempstead
On Hemel Hempstead properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Hemel Hempstead's knotweed populations are strongly linked to the River Gade and the Grand Union Canal, which pass through the old industrial areas of the town where former paper mills once operated.
