Why running bamboo is a problem in Barry
On Barry properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Barry's dockland, the old Barry Railway and the reclaimed colliery tips around Barry Island gave knotweed a foothold that still reappears along the Cadoxton and Cold Knap edges after each flood.
