Why cotoneaster is a problem in Cavan
On Cavan properties, cotoneaster bird-sown seedlings root into walls, rockeries and chalk banks, and established bushes crowd out native ground flora. In Cavan, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Kingscourt Stream and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Killykeen Forest Park and Lough Oughter, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Butlersbridge and Ballyhaise, are where we most often find established stands.
