Why broad-leaved dock is a problem in Mumbles
On Mumbles properties, broad-leaved dock deep taproot survives cutting and each plant sheds tens of thousands of seeds that persist for decades in soil. Around Mumbles pier and Oystermouth Castle, Mumbles'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 South Wales.
