Why buddleia is a problem in Blackwood
On Blackwood properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. Blackwood sits in the Sirhowy valley, where former colliery land and disused mineral railway beds give Japanese knotweed an unbroken run from the tips down to the Ebbw and Rhymney corridors.
