Why buddleia is a problem in Grays
On Grays properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. Grays' industrial waterfront on the Thames Estuary, including former chalk quarries and cement works, provides disturbed ground where knotweed has spread rapidly along the riverside path and rail corridor to London.
