Why cotoneaster is a problem in Dundalk
On Dundalk properties, cotoneaster bird-sown seedlings root into walls, rockeries and chalk banks, and established bushes crowd out native ground flora. In Dundalk, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Castletown River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Dundalk Bay and Cooley Peninsula, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Blackrock and Carlingford, are where we most often find established stands.
