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