Why buddleia is a problem in Canterbury
On Canterbury properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. Canterbury's River Stour, running through disturbed water meadows near the old city walls, along with former railway sidings, has provided knotweed with persistent footholds around the cathedral city.
