    Why buddleia is a problem in Watford

    On Watford properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. The River Colne and Grand Union Canal run through Watford, both classic knotweed conduits, and former printing works and industrial estates near Cassiobury Park continue to harbour long-standing infestations.
