Why buddleia is a problem in South Shields
On South Shields properties, buddleia seeds into mortar joints, gutters, parapets and rail structures, where the woody root opens joints and causes real structural damage. South Shields' former shipyards and colliery staithes at the mouth of the River Tyne left disturbed dockland ground where Japanese knotweed has spread along the riverside walkway and old railway embankments toward the coast.
