Why buddleia is a problem in St Ives
On St Ives properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. St Ives sits directly on the Great Ouse, with its historic chapel bridge and riverside meadows providing long-term knotweed habitat, further compounded by the old railway trackbed now used as a guided busway.
