Why running bamboo is a problem in Horsham
On Horsham properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. The River Arun rises near Horsham, and the town's old brickworks and former railway sidings along its course have proved ideal ground for knotweed, with further spread tracked through Horsham Park's watercourses.
