Why buddleia is a problem in Southend-on-Sea
On Southend-on-Sea properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. Southend's Victorian seafront regeneration and the historic Prittle Brook corridor have left disturbed embankments where knotweed spreads readily, aided by the town's dense rail network including the London to Southend line.
