Why ground elder is a problem in Windsor
On Windsor properties, ground elder brittle white rhizome regrows from every fragment, so digging alone usually spreads it further through borders and hedge lines. Windsor's riverside meadows along the Thames, disturbed by centuries of royal estate management and old railway embankments near Windsor & Eton Riverside station, remain a persistent site for knotweed growth.
