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