Why buddleia is a problem in Southampton
On Southampton properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. Southampton's docklands and the Itchen and Test river corridors provide disturbed, nutrient-rich ground where Japanese knotweed has spread readily, aided by rail sidings around Southampton Central and reclaimed industrial land near the old Itchen wharves.
