    Why running bamboo is a problem in Dublin

    On Dublin properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. In Dublin, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Liffey and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Phoenix Park and Grand Canal, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Ranelagh and Rathmines, are where we most often find established stands.
