Why running bamboo is a problem in Worthing
On Worthing properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Worthing's coastal floodplain and the meandering River Teville, now largely culverted through the town, have created pockets of persistent knotweed, especially around former glasshouse nursery sites once common in the area.
