Why ground elder is a problem in Cinderford
On Cinderford properties, ground elder brittle white rhizome regrows from every fragment, so digging alone usually spreads it further through borders and hedge lines. Around the town centre and the Forest of Dean, Cinderford's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Gloucestershire.
