Why floating pennywort is a problem in Roscommon
On Roscommon properties, floating pennywort grows up to twenty centimetres a day, choking ponds, ditches and slow water and blocking drainage and angling access. In Roscommon, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Hind and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Roscommon Castle and Loughnaneane Park, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Athleague and Kilteevan, are where we most often find established stands.
