Why running bamboo is a problem in Liverpool
On Liverpool properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Liverpool's extensive dockland regeneration and the historic Leeds and Liverpool Canal corridor have left brownfield sites where knotweed spreads from Victorian railway cuttings into inner-city gardens and waterfront developments.
