Why cotoneaster is a problem in Eastleigh
On Eastleigh properties, cotoneaster bird-sown seedlings root into walls, rockeries and chalk banks, and established bushes crowd out native ground flora. Eastleigh grew up around its railway works, and the sidings, embankments and old ballast yards near Eastleigh station continue to provide the disturbed ground knotweed favours, reinforced by proximity to the River Itchen floodplain.
