Why broad-leaved dock is a problem in Honiton
On Honiton properties, broad-leaved dock deep taproot survives cutting and each plant sheds tens of thousands of seeds that persist for decades in soil. Around the high street and the Otter valley, Honiton's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Devon.
