Why floating pennywort is a problem in Rugby
On Rugby properties, floating pennywort grows up to twenty centimetres a day, choking ponds, ditches and slow water and blocking drainage and angling access. Rugby's extensive former railway works and marshalling yards, once among the largest in England, left considerable disturbed land colonised by knotweed, with further spread tracked along the River Avon through the town.
